The verdict

Geismar Plant runs at 12% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Chlorine manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Geismar Plant: 0.4 TCR = 12% of Chlorine manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Geismar Plant safety composite

Geismar Plant scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 93% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 49%), 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).
