The verdict

Thermofisher Scientific runs at 21% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Instruments for industrial process control manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Thermofisher Scientific: 0.7 TCR = 21% of Instruments for industrial process control manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Thermofisher Scientific safety composite

Thermofisher Scientific scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 38%), 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).

Grade A

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Massachusetts alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #8 safest of 21 Instruments for industrial pro employers in Massachusetts.

Thermofisher Scientific (361 employees, TCR 0.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 96 employees and a TCR of 1.3

Thermofisher Scientific has more employees than the Instruments for industrial process contr median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.3. 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.
