Quality Machine & Fabrication: 0.7 TCR = 22% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Quality Machine & Fabrication safety composite

Quality Machine & Fabrication scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 94% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 32%), 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).

Quality Machine & Fabrication has fewer employees than the Machine shops median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
