Trend analysis for EMD Millipore
Between 2016 and 2019, EMD Millipore's Total Case Rate improved from 3.5 to 2.3 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 36% decrease across 3 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 1.9, while 2016 saw the highest rate, at 3.5, a spread of 1.6 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 4 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.
Summed across those 4 reporting years, EMD Millipore recorded 64 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 4-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2019)
What is the DART rate formula?
DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.
16 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,948,769 hours worked = 1.64 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping

What this grade means for you
Use this grade as a relative read on EMD Millipore's reported OSHA injury record, strong versus its Laboratory analytical instruments (except optical) manufacturing peers, but not a guarantee about any single site today.
- At 81% of the Laboratory analytical instruments (except optical) manufacturing benchmark, EMD Millipore reports fewer injuries than typical peers, still worth asking how safety is managed day to day. Know your rights
- Judge this record against the wider Laboratory analytical instruments (except optical) manufacturing sector, where injury rates vary widely, before comparing it in isolation. See the industry
- Grades reflect 2016–2024 filings; check the latest establishment record straight from OSHA, or look up a different employer. Look up another
Safety grades reflect employers' self-reported OSHA Form 300A filings from 2016 to 2024 and can lag current conditions. A grade is not a guarantee that any specific workplace is safe or unsafe today. See our methodology and disclaimer.
