The verdict

Paslin runs at 83% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Welding equipment manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Paslin: 2.8 TCR = 83% of Welding equipment manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Paslin safety composite

Paslin scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), 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).

Paslin has more employees than the Welding equipment manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.8. 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.
