The verdict

Main Operations runs at 280% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Food Product Machinery Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Main Operations: 9.2 TCR = 280% of Food Product Machinery Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Main Operations safety composite

Main Operations scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 8%), 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).
