The verdict

Leonardo DRS runs at 19% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Optical test and inspection equipment manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Leonardo DRS: 0.6 TCR = 19% of Optical test and inspection equipment manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Leonardo DRS safety composite

Leonardo DRS scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (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).

Leonardo DRS (1,205 employees, TCR 0.6) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 80 employees and a TCR of 1.8

Leonardo DRS has more employees than the Optical test and inspection equipment ma median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
