The verdict

Welding Works runs at 461% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Barge sections, prefabricated metal, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Welding Works: 15.2 TCR = 461% of Barge sections, prefabricated metal, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Welding Works safety composite

Welding Works scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 1%), 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).
