The verdict

PacBio USA Field runs at 20% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Laboratory analytical instruments (except optical) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

PacBio USA Field: 0.7 TCR = 20% of Laboratory analytical instruments (except optical) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

PacBio USA Field safety composite

PacBio USA Field scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 74% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 35%), 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).
