Williamsport Site: 2.5 TCR = 60% of Potato chips manufacturing BLS 4.1 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Williamsport Site safety composite

Williamsport Site scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 41%), 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).
