The verdict

N-Fab runs at 86% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Bumpers and bumperettes assembled, automotive, truck, and bus, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

N-Fab: 4.6 TCR = 86% of Bumpers and bumperettes assembled, automotive, truck, and bus, manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

N-Fab safety composite

N-Fab scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 25%), 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).
