The verdict

ShoreMaster Plastics runs at 296% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Polyurethane foam products manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

ShoreMaster Plastics: 9.8 TCR = 296% of Polyurethane foam products manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ShoreMaster Plastics safety composite

ShoreMaster Plastics scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 4%), 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).
