The verdict

Thermo Fisher Scientific (Microgenics) runs at 38% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical In-vitro diagnostic substances manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Thermo Fisher Scientific (Microgenics): 1.2 TCR = 38% of In-vitro diagnostic substances manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Thermo Fisher Scientific (Microgenics) safety composite

Thermo Fisher Scientific (Microgenics) scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 56% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 33%), 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).
