The verdict

KTM runs at 141% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Truck Trailer Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

KTM: 4.6 TCR = 141% of Truck Trailer Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

KTM safety composite

KTM scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
