Southern Mechanical, Inc. safety composite

Southern Mechanical, Inc. scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 84% 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).

Southern Mechanical, Inc. has fewer employees than the Mechanical contractors median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3.
