The verdict

Lam Research Fremont runs at 4% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Semiconductor making machinery manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Lam Research Fremont: 0.1 TCR = 4% of Semiconductor making machinery manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Lam Research Fremont safety composite

Lam Research Fremont scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 98% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
