The verdict

Biotrial runs at 814% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Observatories, research institutions workplace, earning a grade F.

Biotrial: 4.1 TCR = 814% of Observatories, research institutions BLS 0.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Biotrial safety composite

Biotrial scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 6%), 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).

Biotrial (35 employees, TCR 4.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 159 employees and a TCR of 0.8

Biotrial has fewer employees than the Observatories, research institutions median and a higher 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.
