The verdict

NPPFargo runs at 90% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical PVC pipe manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

NPPFargo: 3.0 TCR = 90% of PVC pipe manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NPPFargo safety composite

NPPFargo 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).
