The verdict

Matrix runs at 51% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade B.

Matrix: 1.7 TCR = 51% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Matrix safety composite

Matrix scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).

Matrix has fewer employees than the Machine shops 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.
