The verdict

Development Center runs at 88% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Food research and development laboratories or services (except biotechnology research and development) workplace, earning a grade C.

Development Center: 0.4 TCR = 88% of Food research and development laboratories or services (except biotechnology research and development) BLS 0.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Development Center safety composite

Development Center scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% 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).

Development Center (147 employees, TCR 0.4) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 159 employees and a TCR of 0.8

Development Center has fewer employees than the Food research and development laboratori median and a lower 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.
