Maine Biotechnology Services safety composite
Maine Biotechnology Services scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 7%), 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 Maine Biotechnology Services falls in its industry
201 Viral in-vitro diagnostic test establishmentsSafer than 23% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.4.
Narrower to Maine alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #9 safest of 14 Viral in-vitro diagnostic test employers in Maine.
Maine Biotechnology Services has fewer employees than the Viral in-vitro diagnostic test substance median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.4. 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.
