The verdict

TAP Manufacturing runs at 24% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Automotive, truck and bus steering assemblies and parts manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

TAP Manufacturing: 1.3 TCR = 24% of Automotive, truck and bus steering assemblies and parts manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

TAP Manufacturing safety composite

TAP Manufacturing scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (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).
