Howard: 0.9 TCR = 28% of Offset printing (except books, printing grey goods) BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Howard safety composite

Howard scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 89% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
