- 0.93 injuries per 100 full-time workers led to days away, restricted duty, or a job transfer in 2025.
- 6 unfair labor practice charges filed with the NLRB against this employer in Texas, last 5 years. A charge is an allegation, not a finding.
- The company's own materials describe 5 of 9 workplace practices Workarma looks for, including training or tuition programs, paid leave, and mental health or assistance benefits.
- Files a federal report for an employee health plan (Form 5500, 2024 plan year).

- No OSHA serious, willful, or repeat citations matched to this employer in Texas, last 5 years.
