Bart (Bsa): 3.2 TCR = 636% of Research and Development in the Physical Engineering and Life Sciences (except Biotechnology) BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bart (Bsa) safety composite

Bart (Bsa) scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 8%), 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).
