The verdict

Lci - 028 runs at 214% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fabricated Structural Metal Products workplace, earning a grade F.

Lci - 028: 7.1 TCR = 214% of Fabricated Structural Metal Products BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Lci - 028 safety composite

Lci - 028 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 28%), 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).
