The verdict

VTL Precision runs at 174% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade D.

VTL Precision: 5.8 TCR = 174% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

VTL Precision safety composite

VTL Precision scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 26%), 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).

Grade D

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to South Carolina alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #13 safest of 14 Machine shops employers in South Carolina.

VTL Precision (45 employees, TCR 5.8) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 48 employees and a TCR of 3.5

VTL Precision has fewer employees than the Machine shops median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
