The verdict

MPI Knox runs at 116% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade C.

MPI Knox: 3.8 TCR = 116% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MPI Knox safety composite

MPI Knox scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% 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).
