The verdict

Omega Protein runs at 46% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Menhaden fishing workplace, earning a grade A.

Omega Protein: 2.1 TCR = 46% of Menhaden fishing BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Omega Protein safety composite

Omega Protein scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 4%), 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).
