VA010 Emporia Plywood safety composite

VA010 Emporia Plywood scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 32% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 4%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers.

This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
