Microchip Technology Inc. Austin: 0.1 TCR = 5% of Microcontroller chip manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Microchip Technology Inc. Austin safety composite

Microchip Technology Inc. Austin scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 94% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
