Plant: 5.0 TCR = 152% of Furniture, hospital, specialized (e.g., hospital beds, operating room furniture), manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Plant safety composite

Plant scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 17%), 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).
