The verdict

EMC runs at 38% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Hospitals general medical and surgical workplace, earning a grade A.

EMC: 2.8 TCR = 38% of Hospitals general medical and surgical BLS 7.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

EMC safety composite

EMC scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).

EMC has more employees than the Hospitals general medical and surgical median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 5.2. 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.
