The verdict

MPI Research runs at 728% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade F.

MPI Research: 3.6 TCR = 728% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MPI Research safety composite

MPI Research scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 13%), 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).

MPI Research has more employees than the Biotechnology research and development l median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.8. 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.
