The verdict

Plant 1 runs at 46% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Cups, plastics (except foam), manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Plant 1: 1.5 TCR = 46% of Cups, plastics (except foam), manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Plant 1 safety composite

Plant 1 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
