The verdict
Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory runs at 262% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Engineering research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade F.
Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory: 1.3 TCR = 262% of Engineering research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory safety composite
Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 5%), 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).

Where Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory falls in its industry
319 Engineering research and devel establishmentsSafer than 29% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 0.8.
Narrower to Colorado alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #2 safest of 5 Engineering research and devel employers in Colorado.
Rocky Mountain Scientific Laboratory has fewer 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.
