The verdict

Process Technology runs at 45% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Chemical processing machinery and equipment manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Process Technology: 1.5 TCR = 45% of Chemical processing machinery and equipment manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Process Technology safety composite

Process Technology scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 36%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Rising injury rate

Process Technology: 2.1 → 2.4 TCR

Peak year 2023 @ 2.4 TCR · DART/TCR 1.21× in 2023

Process Technology's TCR rose 0.4 from 2.1 in 2016 to 2.4 in 2023. In 2023, DART was 1.21× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Process Technology (147 employees, TCR 1.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 70 employees and a TCR of 3.0

Process Technology has more employees than the Chemical processing machinery and equipm median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.0. 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.
