The verdict

Thermotech runs at 69% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Awnings, rigid plastics or fiberglass, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Thermotech: 2.3 TCR = 69% of Awnings, rigid plastics or fiberglass, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Thermotech safety composite

Thermotech scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
