The verdict

KMCO runs at 133% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Ethylene oxide manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

KMCO: 4.4 TCR = 133% of Ethylene oxide manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

KMCO safety composite

KMCO scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 13% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (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).

KMCO (184 employees, TCR 4.4) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 73 employees and a TCR of 1.5

KMCO has more employees than the Ethylene oxide manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.5. 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.
