MAX Aerostructures safety composite
MAX Aerostructures scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 8%), 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).

Where MAX Aerostructures falls in its industry
650 Aircraft auxiliary parts (e.g. establishmentsSafer than 8% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.9.
Narrower to Kansas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #30 safest of 32 Aircraft auxiliary parts (e.g. employers in Kansas.
MAX Aerostructures has fewer employees than the Aircraft auxiliary parts (e.g., crop dus median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.9. 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.
