BD Biosciences San Jose runs at 17% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Immunology instruments, laboratory, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

BD Biosciences San Jose: 0.6 TCR = 17% of Immunology instruments, laboratory, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BD Biosciences San Jose safety composite

BD Biosciences San Jose scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 45%), 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).
