The verdict

Main runs at 201% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Barge building workplace, earning a grade F.

Main: 6.6 TCR = 201% of Barge building BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Main safety composite

Main scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 60% 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).
