The verdict

Gilson Company runs at 95% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Testing equipment (e.g., abrasion, shearing strength, tensile strength, torsion) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Gilson Company: 3.1 TCR = 95% of Testing equipment (e.g., abrasion, shearing strength, tensile strength, torsion) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Gilson Company safety composite

Gilson Company scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 72% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 13%), 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).

Safer than 13% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.2.

Grade C

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Ohio alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #11 safest of 12 Testing equipment (e.g., abras employers in Ohio.

Gilson Company (76 employees, TCR 3.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 81 employees and a TCR of 1.2

Gilson Company has fewer employees than the Testing equipment (e.g., abrasion, shear 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.
