Smith-Boughan safety composite

Smith-Boughan scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Smith-Boughan has more employees than the Mechanical contractors median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3.
