The verdict

NM003 runs at 90% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Engineering research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade C.

NM003: 0.5 TCR = 90% of Engineering research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NM003 safety composite

NM003 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 66% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 12%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Rising injury rate

NM003: 0.0 → 1.8 TCR

Peak year 2020 @ 1.8 TCR · DART/TCR 4.02× in 2020

NM003's TCR rose 1.8 from 0.0 in 2017 to 1.8 in 2020. In 2020, DART was 4.02× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

NM003 (50 employees, TCR 0.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 159 employees and a TCR of 0.8

NM003 has fewer employees than the Engineering research and development lab median and a lower 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.
