The verdict

Plant 26 runs at 20% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Carded yarn manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Plant 26: 0.7 TCR = 20% of Carded yarn manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Plant 26 safety composite

Plant 26 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 92% 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).
