Kaydon Corporation: 2.3 TCR = 69% of Bearing Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Kaydon Corporation safety composite

Kaydon Corporation scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% 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).

Kaydon Corporation has fewer employees than the Bearing Manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.8. 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.
