The verdict

Ware runs at 8% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade A.

Ware: 0.3 TCR = 8% of industry BLS 3.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Ware safety composite

Ware scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 100% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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 A

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Massachusetts alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #2 safest of 842 industry employers in Massachusetts.

Ware (38 employees, TCR 0.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 99 employees and a TCR of 4.7

Ware has fewer employees than the industry median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.7. 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.
