The verdict
Piston Automotive runs at 50% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Radiators and cores manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.
Piston Automotive: 2.7 TCR = 50% of Radiators and cores manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Piston Automotive safety composite
Piston Automotive scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 59% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
