The verdict

TransChemical runs at 289% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Surface active agents manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

TransChemical: 9.5 TCR = 289% of Surface active agents manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

TransChemical safety composite

TransChemical scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 3%), 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).

TransChemical has fewer employees than the Surface active agents manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.7. 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.
