The verdict

Plant 6 runs at 84% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Thread, all fibers, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Plant 6: 2.8 TCR = 84% of Thread, all fibers, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Plant 6 safety composite

Plant 6 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 18%), 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).
