The verdict

LW Scientific runs at 58% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Laboratory analytical optical instruments (e.g., microscopes) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

LW Scientific: 1.9 TCR = 58% of Laboratory analytical optical instruments (e.g., microscopes) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

LW Scientific safety composite

LW Scientific scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 45%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

LW Scientific held a steady TCR band

LW Scientific's TCR held near 0.0 from 0.0 in 2019 to 0.0 in 2024. Peak filing year was 2023 at 7.7 TCR. In 2024, DART was 0× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

LW Scientific (29 employees, TCR 1.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 80 employees and a TCR of 1.8

LW Scientific has fewer employees than the Laboratory analytical optical instrument median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.8. 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.
