The verdict

Mestek runs at 221% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Assembly machines manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Mestek: 7.3 TCR = 221% of Assembly machines manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Mestek safety composite

Mestek scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 11%), 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).

Mestek has more employees than the Assembly machines manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.7. 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.
