The verdict

Gast Manufacturing runs at 49% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Centrifugal pumps manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Gast Manufacturing: 1.6 TCR = 49% of Centrifugal pumps manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Gast Manufacturing safety composite

Gast Manufacturing scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 32%), 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).
