Lexington safety composite
Lexington scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 11%), 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).

Where Lexington falls in its industry
213 Laboratory analytical instrume establishmentsSafer than 28% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.2.
Narrower to Massachusetts alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #29 safest of 33 Laboratory analytical instrume employers in Massachusetts.
Lexington has fewer employees than the Laboratory analytical instruments (excep median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. 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.
