The verdict

MGS runs at 70% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Packaging machinery manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

MGS: 2.3 TCR = 70% of Packaging machinery manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MGS safety composite

MGS scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 17%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Rising injury rate

MGS: 0.9 → 3.7 TCR

Peak year 2024 @ 3.7 TCR · DART/TCR 1.2× in 2024

MGS's TCR rose 2.7 from 0.9 in 2017 to 3.7 in 2024. In 2024, DART was 1.2× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

MGS (110 employees, TCR 2.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 66 employees and a TCR of 2.4

MGS has more employees than the Packaging machinery manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.4. 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.
