The verdict

LI-COR Biosciences runs at 19% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Acidity (i.e., pH) measuring equipment, laboratory analysis-type, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

LI-COR Biosciences: 0.6 TCR = 19% of Acidity (i.e., pH) measuring equipment, laboratory analysis-type, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

LI-COR Biosciences safety composite

LI-COR Biosciences scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 42%), 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).

LI-COR Biosciences has more employees than the Acidity (i.e., pH) measuring equipment, median and a lower 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.
