The verdict

Malcom BASF runs at 68% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Polyurethane resins manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Malcom BASF: 2.3 TCR = 68% of Polyurethane resins manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Malcom BASF safety composite

Malcom BASF scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 45%), 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).

Malcom BASF has fewer employees than the Polyurethane resins manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.0. 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.
