The verdict
Thermo Fisher Scientific runs at 17% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Hematology products (except diagnostic substances) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.
Thermo Fisher Scientific: 0.6 TCR = 17% of Hematology products (except diagnostic substances) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Thermo Fisher Scientific safety composite
Thermo Fisher Scientific scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 30%), 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%).
Rising injury rate
Thermo Fisher Scientific: 0.4 → 1.1 TCR
Peak year 2020 @ 1.3 TCR · DART/TCR 1.89× in 2024
Thermo Fisher Scientific's TCR rose 0.6 from 0.4 in 2016 to 1.1 in 2024. Peak filing year was 2020 at 1.3 TCR. In 2024, DART was 1.89× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Where Thermo Fisher Scientific falls in its industry
234 Hematology products (except di establishmentsSafer than 75% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.2.
Narrower to Texas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #6 safest of 10 Hematology products (except di employers in Texas.
Thermo Fisher Scientific has more employees than the Hematology products (except diagnostic s 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.
