The verdict

Metric runs at 219% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Commercial screen printing workplace, earning a grade F.

Metric: 7.2 TCR = 219% of Commercial screen printing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Metric safety composite

Metric scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 3%), 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).

Metric has more employees than the Commercial screen printing 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.
