Tecumseh Plant safety composite

Tecumseh Plant scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 4%), 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).

Tecumseh Plant has fewer employees than the Poultry Processing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5.
