The verdict

Takeda California runs at 166% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services workplace, earning a grade D.

Takeda California: 0.8 TCR = 166% of Biotechnology research and development laboratories or services BLS 0.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Takeda California safety composite

Takeda California scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 76% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 46%), 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 Takeda California falls in its industry

189 Biotechnology research and dev establishments

Safer than 46% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 0.8.

Grade D

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to California alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #27 safest of 51 Biotechnology research and dev employers in California.

Takeda California (244 employees, TCR 0.8) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 296 employees and a TCR of 0.8

Takeda California has fewer employees than the Biotechnology research and development l 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.
