The verdict

Genentech runs at 100% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade C.

Genentech: 0.5 TCR = 100% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Genentech safety composite

Genentech scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 41%), 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).

Genentech (871 employees, TCR 0.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 296 employees and a TCR of 0.8

Genentech has more employees than the Biotechnology research and development l 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.
