## How we ranked

The State Score runs from 0 to 10 with the same factors and weights as the Handshake Score. For each factor, when a company’s research record ties evidence to Washington, only the Washington evidence counts and the table marks the factor In-state. When it can’t, the factor uses the company’s whole record and is marked Company-wide. Licensing and the legal record can be marked In-state + company-wide: Washington records count together with federal and multi-state ones.

The review-volume and verification-depth adjustment from the overall score applies too, with its thresholds scaled to Washington’s share of the Pacific Northwest’s Google reviews. The regional breadth adjustment doesn’t apply, since every company here is compared within one state.

To be ranked, a company needs a location on file in Washington and at least 100 Google reviews on its Washington listings.

Ties are broken by in-state Google review volume. A factor with no usable inputs is left out and the other weights are scaled up, exactly as in the overall score. The Handshake Score on each company’s page still rates its whole Pacific Northwest operation.

### Where the evidence comes from in Washington

- Customer satisfaction: in-state for every ranked company.
- Complaint record: in-state for 2 companies, company-wide for 14 companies.
- Sales and contract fairness: company-wide for every ranked company.
- Licensing and compliance: in-state for every ranked company.
- Legal and regulatory record: company-wide for every ranked company.
- Workplace: company-wide for every ranked company.

This ranking uses State Score state-1.0 (based on 1.2.1 (rules v1.0.5, confidence v1.2.1)). [How state scores work](https://handshakereviews.com/how-we-review#state-scores).

### How is the Washington ranking different from the Pacific Northwest ranking?

The Pacific Northwest ranking rates each company’s whole Pacific Northwest operation. The Washington ranking uses the State Score, which counts Washington evidence where the record has it (Google reviews and pesticide licenses) and the company’s whole record for the rest. A company needs at least 100 Google reviews on its Washington listings to be ranked here.
