The verdict

Syngenta RTP runs at 20% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services in agriculture workplace, earning a grade A.

Syngenta RTP: 0.1 TCR = 20% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services in agriculture BLS 0.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Syngenta RTP safety composite

Syngenta RTP scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 97% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 43%), 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).
