The verdict

NuVasive Specialized Orthopedics runs at 46% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Medical ultrasound equipment manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

NuVasive Specialized Orthopedics: 1.5 TCR = 46% of Medical ultrasound equipment manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NuVasive Specialized Orthopedics safety composite

NuVasive Specialized Orthopedics scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (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).
