The verdict

Precision Laboratories LLC runs at 66% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Defoamers and antifoaming agents manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Precision Laboratories LLC: 2.2 TCR = 66% of Defoamers and antifoaming agents manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Precision Laboratories LLC safety composite

Precision Laboratories LLC scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 56% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 22%), 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).
