Journal Graphics: 12.4 TCR = 375% of Commercial printing (except screen, books) BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Journal Graphics safety composite

Journal Graphics scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% 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).
