The verdict

Tatco Machine runs at 322% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade F.

Tatco Machine: 10.6 TCR = 322% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Tatco Machine safety composite

Tatco Machine scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 6%), 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).
