The verdict

Thermo Fisher Scientific runs at 10% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Mass spectrometers manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Thermo Fisher Scientific: 0.3 TCR = 10% of Mass spectrometers manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Thermo Fisher Scientific safety composite

Thermo Fisher Scientific scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 92% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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%).

Thermo Fisher Scientific held a steady TCR band

Thermo Fisher Scientific's TCR held near 0.2 from 0.2 in 2022 to 0.0 in 2024. Peak filing year was 2023 at 0.8 TCR. In 2024, DART was 0× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Thermo Fisher Scientific (404 employees, TCR 0.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 133 employees and a TCR of 1.2

Thermo Fisher Scientific has more employees than the Mass spectrometers manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. 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.
