The verdict

Pfizer Inc runs at 102% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade C.

Pfizer Inc: 0.5 TCR = 102% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Pfizer Inc safety composite

Pfizer Inc scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), 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).
