The verdict

Telefast runs at 202% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fastener Manufacturer workplace, earning a grade F.

Telefast: 6.7 TCR = 202% of Fastener Manufacturer BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Telefast safety composite

Telefast scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 17%), 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).
