The verdict

D9 Materials Laboratory runs at 150% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Regulation and Administration of Transportation Programs workplace, earning a grade D.

D9 Materials Laboratory: 4.8 TCR = 150% of Regulation and Administration of Transportation Programs BLS 3.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

D9 Materials Laboratory safety composite

D9 Materials Laboratory scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 36%), 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).

D9 Materials Laboratory has fewer employees than the Regulation and Administration of Transpo median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.6. 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.
