The verdict

The Hardy Corporation runs at 131% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Mechanical contractors workplace, earning a grade D.

The Hardy Corporation: 3.7 TCR = 131% of Mechanical contractors BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

The Hardy Corporation safety composite

The Hardy Corporation scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 25%), 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).

Narrower to Alabama alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #60 safest of 85 Mechanical contractors employers in Alabama.

The Hardy Corporation (447 employees, TCR 3.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 60 employees and a TCR of 3.3
