The verdict

OC Science & Technology Center runs at 190% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Engineering research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade D.

OC Science & Technology Center: 0.9 TCR = 190% of Engineering research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

OC Science & Technology Center safety composite

OC Science & Technology Center scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 21%), 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).

OC Science & Technology Center (472 employees, TCR 0.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 159 employees and a TCR of 0.8

OC Science & Technology Center has more employees than the Engineering research and development lab 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.
