NGDS-WV01: 0.8 TCR = 24% of Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Propulsion Unit and Propulsion Unit Parts Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NGDS-WV01 safety composite

NGDS-WV01 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 60% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 49%), 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).
