The verdict

Optogenics runs at 150% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Lenses, ophthalmic, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Optogenics: 5.0 TCR = 150% of Lenses, ophthalmic, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Optogenics safety composite

Optogenics scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 5%), 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).
