The verdict

Primester GP runs at 50% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Cellulose acetate (except resins) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Primester GP: 1.6 TCR = 50% of Cellulose acetate (except resins) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Primester GP safety composite

Primester GP scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 47%), 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).
