Waterous Company: 0.9 TCR = 28% of Valves, industrial-type (e.g., check, gate, globe, relief, safety), manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Waterous Company safety composite

Waterous Company scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 40%), 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).
