The verdict

Graco Mechanical runs at 33% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) contractors workplace, earning a grade A.

Graco Mechanical: 0.9 TCR = 33% of Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) contractors BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Graco Mechanical safety composite

Graco Mechanical scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 89% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), 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).

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Texas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #77 safest of 408 Heating, ventilation and air-c employers in Texas.

Graco Mechanical has more employees than the Heating, ventilation and air-conditionin median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3. 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.
