The verdict

Polytek - Easton runs at 27% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Synthetic rubber (i.e., vulcanizable elastomers) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Polytek - Easton: 0.9 TCR = 27% of Synthetic rubber (i.e., vulcanizable elastomers) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Polytek - Easton safety composite

Polytek - Easton scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 87% 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).
