Natural Structures: 12.5 TCR = 379% of Fabricated plate work manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Natural Structures safety composite

Natural Structures scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 5%), 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).
