SCS Desco: 3.1 TCR = 94% of Laminated plastics plate, rod, and sheet, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

SCS Desco safety composite

SCS Desco scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 62% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (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).
