The verdict

Rincon Engineering Corp runs at 43% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade A.

Rincon Engineering Corp: 1.4 TCR = 43% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Rincon Engineering Corp safety composite

Rincon Engineering Corp scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 23%), 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).

Rincon Engineering Corp (37 employees, TCR 1.4) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 48 employees and a TCR of 3.5

Rincon Engineering Corp 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.
