The verdict

Howell Electric runs at 59% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Low voltage electrical work workplace, earning a grade B.

Howell Electric: 1.7 TCR = 59% of Low voltage electrical work BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Howell Electric safety composite

Howell Electric scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 78% 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).
