Welding Technologies, Inc.: 10.7 TCR = 323% of Electrodes, welding, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Welding Technologies, Inc. safety composite

Welding Technologies, Inc. scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 3%), 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).
