The verdict

Main Location runs at 780% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Engineering workplace, earning a grade F.

Main Location: 3.9 TCR = 780% of Engineering BLS 0.5 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Main Location safety composite

Main Location scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 9%), 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).

Main Location (67 employees, TCR 3.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 112 employees and a TCR of 0.9

Main Location has fewer employees than the Engineering median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.9. 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.
