The verdict

Applied Research Laboratory runs at 212% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Research workplace, earning a grade F.

Applied Research Laboratory: 1.1 TCR = 212% of Research BLS 0.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Applied Research Laboratory safety composite

Applied Research Laboratory scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 35%), 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).

Applied Research Laboratory (40 employees, TCR 1.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 159 employees and a TCR of 0.8

Applied Research Laboratory has fewer employees than the Research median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.8. 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.
