The verdict

The ESCO Group runs at 42% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Low voltage electrical work workplace, earning a grade A.

The ESCO Group: 1.2 TCR = 42% of Low voltage electrical work BLS 2.8 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

The ESCO Group safety composite

The ESCO Group scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 43%), 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).

The ESCO Group has more employees than the Low voltage electrical work median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.5. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
