The verdict

KTS-L runs at 201% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Truck Trailer Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

KTS-L: 6.6 TCR = 201% of Truck Trailer Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

KTS-L safety composite

KTS-L scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 56% 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).
