The verdict

NuSil Technology runs at 36% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Silicone rubber manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

NuSil Technology: 1.2 TCR = 36% of Silicone rubber manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NuSil Technology safety composite

NuSil Technology scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

NuSil Technology (158 employees, TCR 1.2) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 85 employees and a TCR of 2.8

NuSil Technology has more employees than the Silicone rubber manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
