The verdict

Lake County runs at 12% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Lake County: 0.4 TCR = 12% of Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Lake County safety composite

Lake County scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 88% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
