The verdict

Newton Drive runs at 14% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Socks knitting or knitting and finishing workplace, earning a grade A.

Newton Drive: 0.5 TCR = 14% of Socks knitting or knitting and finishing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Newton Drive safety composite

Newton Drive scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 96% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 38%), 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).
