The verdict

Solar Testing Labs runs at 118% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Laboratory testing (except medical, veterinary) services workplace, earning a grade C.

Solar Testing Labs: 0.6 TCR = 118% of Laboratory testing (except medical, veterinary) services BLS 0.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Solar Testing Labs safety composite

Solar Testing Labs scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 20%), 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).
