The verdict

Metabolon, Inc. runs at 58% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade B.

Metabolon, Inc.: 0.3 TCR = 58% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Metabolon, Inc. safety composite

Metabolon, Inc. scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 15%), 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).
