The verdict

L3 Technologies runs at 54% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Gun sights, optical, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

L3 Technologies: 1.8 TCR = 54% of Gun sights, optical, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

L3 Technologies safety composite

L3 Technologies scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 45%), 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).
