The verdict

Gunite Corporation runs at 106% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Iron foundries workplace, earning a grade C.

Gunite Corporation: 3.5 TCR = 106% of Iron foundries BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Gunite Corporation safety composite

Gunite Corporation scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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 Illinois alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #3 safest of 10 Iron foundries employers in Illinois.

Gunite Corporation (310 employees, TCR 3.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 112 employees and a TCR of 7.2

Gunite Corporation has more employees than the Iron foundries median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 7.2. 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.
