The verdict

BioDevices runs at 14% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Pharmaceutical preparations (e.g., capsules, liniments, ointments, tablets) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

BioDevices: 0.5 TCR = 14% of Pharmaceutical preparations (e.g., capsules, liniments, ointments, tablets) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BioDevices safety composite

BioDevices scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 87% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
