The verdict

Hope runs at 41% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Sawdust, regrinding workplace, earning a grade A.

Hope: 1.3 TCR = 41% of Sawdust, regrinding BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Hope safety composite

Hope scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 88% 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).

Where Hope falls in its industry

405 Sawdust, regrinding establishments

Safer than 88% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 4.7.

Grade A

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Arkansas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #2 safest of 7 Sawdust, regrinding employers in Arkansas.

Hope (33 employees, TCR 1.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 44 employees and a TCR of 4.7

Hope has fewer employees than the Sawdust, regrinding median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.7. 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.
