The verdict

HS Fibers runs at 96% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

HS Fibers: 3.2 TCR = 96% of Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

HS Fibers safety composite

HS Fibers scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 58% 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).

Grade C

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to North Carolina alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #23 safest of 42 Manufacturing employers in North Carolina.

HS Fibers (60 employees, TCR 3.2) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 82 employees and a TCR of 3.5

HS Fibers has fewer employees than the Manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
