The verdict

Owens Corning runs at 70% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade B.

Owens Corning: 2.3 TCR = 70% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Owens Corning safety composite

Owens Corning scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 31%), 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).
