The verdict

Samsung runs at 9% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Samsung: 0.3 TCR = 9% of Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Samsung safety composite

Samsung scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 37%), 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

Samsung: 0.0 → 0.6 TCR

Peak year 2022 @ 1.1 TCR · DART/TCR 1.83× in 2024

Samsung's TCR rose 0.6 from 0.0 in 2016 to 0.6 in 2024. Peak filing year was 2022 at 1.1 TCR. In 2024, DART was 1.83× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Samsung (174 employees, TCR 0.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 216 employees and a TCR of 0.9

Samsung has fewer employees than the Semiconductor/Electronics manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.9. 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.
