The verdict

Hopewell runs at 126% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Pharmaceutical Research and Development workplace, earning a grade D.

Hopewell: 0.6 TCR = 126% of Pharmaceutical Research and Development BLS 0.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Hopewell safety composite

Hopewell scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 56% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), 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).

Hopewell has more employees than the Pharmaceutical Research and Development 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.
