The verdict

Micron Products runs at 65% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Balloons, plastics, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Micron Products: 2.2 TCR = 65% of Balloons, plastics, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Micron Products safety composite

Micron Products scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 39%), 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).
