L & S Insulation: 4.2 TCR = 149% of Pipe, duct and boiler insulation BLS 2.8 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

L & S Insulation safety composite

L & S Insulation scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 21%), 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).
