The verdict

MAIN runs at 297% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Insulation contractors workplace, earning a grade F.

MAIN: 8.3 TCR = 297% of Insulation contractors BLS 2.8 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MAIN safety composite

MAIN scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 5%), 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).
