The verdict

Rust-Oleum runs at 38% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Dispersions, pigment, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Rust-Oleum: 1.3 TCR = 38% of Dispersions, pigment, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Rust-Oleum safety composite

Rust-Oleum scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 50%), 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).
