The verdict

Plant 6 runs at 485% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fabricated structural metal manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Plant 6: 16.0 TCR = 485% of Fabricated structural metal manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y 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 2%), 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).
