The verdict

Materials Division runs at 108% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Lithium batteries, primary, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Materials Division: 3.5 TCR = 108% of Lithium batteries, primary, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Materials Division safety composite

Materials Division scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 1%), 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).
