The verdict

Applied Materials runs at 21% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Applied Materials: 0.7 TCR = 21% of Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Applied Materials safety composite

Applied Materials scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Applied Materials held a steady TCR band

Applied Materials's TCR held near 0.0 from 0.0 in 2016 to 0.0 in 2024. Peak filing year was 2021 at 3.0 TCR. In 2024, DART was 0× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Applied Materials (39 employees, TCR 0.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 216 employees and a TCR of 0.9

Applied Materials has fewer employees than the Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.9. 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.
