The verdict

Orizon runs at 76% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Aircraft manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Orizon: 2.5 TCR = 76% of Aircraft manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Orizon safety composite

Orizon scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 10%), 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).

Where Orizon falls in its industry

390 Aircraft manufacturing establishments

Safer than 34% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.7.

Grade B

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Kansas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #13 safest of 22 Aircraft manufacturing employers in Kansas.

Orizon (171 employees, TCR 2.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 151 employees and a TCR of 1.7

Orizon has more employees than the Aircraft manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.7. 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.
