The verdict

Iowa runs at 460% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Sporting goods (except ammunition, clothing, footwear, small arms) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Iowa: 15.2 TCR = 460% of Sporting goods (except ammunition, clothing, footwear, small arms) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Iowa safety composite

Iowa scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 1%), 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).

Iowa has fewer employees than the Sporting goods (except ammunition, cloth median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3. 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.
