Western Pneumatic Tube: 7.1 TCR = 216% of Aircraft assemblies, subassemblies, and parts (except engines) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Western Pneumatic Tube safety composite
Western Pneumatic Tube scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 5%), 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).

Western Pneumatic Tube TCR series: 2017=5.4 · 2018=3.4 · 2019=3.2 · 2021=24 · 2023=4 · 2024=2.8 · BLS 3.3
Where Western Pneumatic Tube falls in its industry
650 Aircraft assemblies, subassemb establishmentsSafer than 5% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.9.
Narrower to Washington alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #46 safest of 47 Aircraft assemblies, subassemb employers in Washington.
Western Pneumatic Tube has fewer employees than the Aircraft assemblies, subassemblies, and median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.9. 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.
