Kaivac Production safety composite

Kaivac Production scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).

Kaivac Production (56 employees, TCR 1.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 77 employees and a TCR of 2.7

Kaivac Production has fewer employees than the Floor sanding, washing, and polishing ma median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.7.
