The verdict

Transport Dynamics runs at 197% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Bearings, ball and roller, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Transport Dynamics: 6.5 TCR = 197% of Bearings, ball and roller, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Transport Dynamics safety composite

Transport Dynamics scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 12%), 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).
