The verdict

Applied Materials runs at 17% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Semiconductor assembly and packaging machinery manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Applied Materials: 0.6 TCR = 17% of Semiconductor assembly and packaging machinery manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Applied Materials safety composite

Applied Materials scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 39%), 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 0.3 from 0.5 in 2019 to 0.8 in 2021. In 2021, DART was 0.93× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Applied Materials (3,562 employees, TCR 0.6) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 100 employees and a TCR of 1.2

Applied Materials has more employees than the Semiconductor assembly and packaging mac median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. 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.
