The verdict

Newton Container runs at 48% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Container workplace, earning a grade A.

Newton Container: 1.6 TCR = 48% of Container BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Newton Container safety composite

Newton Container scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
