The verdict

MFI runs at 164% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Aluminum castings (except die-castings), unfinished, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

MFI: 5.4 TCR = 164% of Aluminum castings (except die-castings), unfinished, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MFI safety composite

MFI scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 62% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 12%), 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).
