Industrial Metal Fabrication: 4.1 TCR = 125% of Ducts, sheet metal, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Industrial Metal Fabrication safety composite
Industrial Metal Fabrication scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 55% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 48%), 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).
