The verdict

NPS runs at 51% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Product sterilization and packaging services workplace, earning a grade B.

NPS: 1.3 TCR = 51% of Product sterilization and packaging services BLS 2.6 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NPS safety composite

NPS scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% 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).

Where NPS falls in its industry

228 Product sterilization and pack establishments

Safer than 62% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.9.

Grade B

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Illinois alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #20 safest of 37 Product sterilization and pack employers in Illinois.

NPS (41 employees, TCR 1.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 130 employees and a TCR of 1.9

NPS has fewer employees than the Product sterilization and packaging serv median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.9. 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.
