The verdict

GAC runs at 89% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Semiconductor assembly and packaging machinery manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

GAC: 2.9 TCR = 89% of Semiconductor assembly and packaging machinery manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

GAC safety composite

GAC scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 18%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Rising injury rate

GAC: 2.3 → 3.6 TCR

Peak year 2017 @ 3.6 TCR · DART/TCR 0.41× in 2017

GAC's TCR rose 1.4 from 2.3 in 2016 to 3.6 in 2017. In 2017, DART was 0.41× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

GAC (88 employees, TCR 2.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 100 employees and a TCR of 1.2

GAC has fewer employees than the Semiconductor assembly and packaging mac median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
