NPR of America: 2.0 TCR = 37% of Rings, piston, manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NPR of America safety composite

NPR of America scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 68% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 19%), 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).
