The verdict

Manufacturing runs at 95% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Fabrics, nonwoven, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Manufacturing: 3.1 TCR = 95% of Fabrics, nonwoven, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Manufacturing safety composite

Manufacturing scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 88% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Grade C

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Manufacturing (20 employees, TCR 3.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 82 employees and a TCR of 3.5

Manufacturing has fewer employees than the Fabrics, nonwoven, manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
