NBR Pontaluna: 13.3 TCR = 2668% of Research and Development in Biotechnology (except Nanobiotechnology) BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NBR Pontaluna safety composite

NBR Pontaluna scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 0%), 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).

NBR Pontaluna has fewer employees than the Research and Development in Biotechnolog median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.5. 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.
