The verdict

Iuka runs at 81% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Paper Bag and Coated and Treated Paper Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Iuka: 2.7 TCR = 81% of Paper Bag and Coated and Treated Paper Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Iuka safety composite

Iuka scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 53% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 4%), 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).
