The verdict

BASF Agricultural Solutions runs at 48% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services in agriculture workplace, earning a grade A.

BASF Agricultural Solutions: 0.2 TCR = 48% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services in agriculture BLS 0.5 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BASF Agricultural Solutions safety composite

BASF Agricultural Solutions scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 87% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 49%), 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).

BASF Agricultural Solutions has more employees than the Biotechnology research and development l median and a lower 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.
