WTR-Interstate: 4.8 TCR = 145% of Anodizing metals and metal products for the trade BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

WTR-Interstate safety composite

WTR-Interstate scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 9%), 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).
