The verdict

TrueNorth Steel runs at 191% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Structural steel, fabricated, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

TrueNorth Steel: 6.3 TCR = 191% of Structural steel, fabricated, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

TrueNorth Steel safety composite

TrueNorth Steel scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 34%), 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).
