The verdict

Recycling runs at 134% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Materials recovery facilities (MRF) workplace, earning a grade D.

Recycling: 3.5 TCR = 134% of Materials recovery facilities (MRF) BLS 2.6 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Recycling safety composite

Recycling scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% 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).

Recycling has more employees than the Materials recovery facilities (MRF) median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8. 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.
