Sifco Mechanical, Inc.: 5.3 TCR = 189% of Heating and ventilation system component (e.g., air registers, diffusers, filters, grilles, sound attenuators) installation BLS 2.8 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Sifco Mechanical, Inc. safety composite
Sifco Mechanical, Inc. scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 32%), 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).
