The verdict

Bio-Rad Laboratories-Portland runs at 156% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical In-vitro diagnostic substances manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Bio-Rad Laboratories-Portland: 5.2 TCR = 156% of In-vitro diagnostic substances manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bio-Rad Laboratories-Portland safety composite

Bio-Rad Laboratories-Portland scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 3%), 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).
