The verdict

Plant 43 runs at 200% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Carded yarn manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Plant 43: 6.6 TCR = 200% of Carded yarn manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Plant 43 safety composite

Plant 43 scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 63% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 7%), 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).
