The verdict

Walman - Corporate runs at 70% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Eyeglass frames (i.e., fronts and temples), ophthalmic, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Walman - Corporate: 2.3 TCR = 70% of Eyeglass frames (i.e., fronts and temples), ophthalmic, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Walman - Corporate safety composite

Walman - Corporate scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 39%), 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).
