The verdict

Volvo Penta runs at 55% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Gasoline engines (except aircraft, automotive, truck) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Volvo Penta: 1.8 TCR = 55% of Gasoline engines (except aircraft, automotive, truck) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Volvo Penta safety composite

Volvo Penta scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 42%), 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).
