The verdict

ININD runs at 54% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Hardware Merchant Wholesalers workplace, earning a grade B.

ININD: 1.2 TCR = 54% of Hardware Merchant Wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ININD safety composite

ININD scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 15%), 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).
