The verdict

Pioneer Aerostructures runs at 255% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Aircraft manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Pioneer Aerostructures: 8.4 TCR = 255% of Aircraft manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Pioneer Aerostructures safety composite

Pioneer Aerostructures scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 3%), 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).

Pioneer Aerostructures has fewer 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.
