The verdict

HiLine runs at 88% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Fabrication,Assembly workplace, earning a grade C.

HiLine: 2.9 TCR = 88% of Fabrication,Assembly BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

HiLine safety composite

HiLine scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
