The verdict

MDI-TC runs at 62% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Novelties, not specified elsewhere, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

MDI-TC: 2.1 TCR = 62% of Novelties, not specified elsewhere, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MDI-TC safety composite

MDI-TC scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 42%), 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).
