The verdict

General Atomics Core Groups runs at 162% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade D.

General Atomics Core Groups: 0.8 TCR = 162% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

General Atomics Core Groups safety composite

General Atomics Core Groups scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 76% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 48%), 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).
