Key facts

What the public record shows

Each fact comes from a government record or the company's own materials.

  • 4.50 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers in 2025, from OSHA injury reports for its Texas sites. The national rate for the same industries is 3.11 (BLS, 2024).
  • 3.71 injuries per 100 full-time workers led to days away, restricted duty, or a job transfer in 2025.
  • The company's own materials describe 2 of 9 workplace practices Workarma looks for: training or tuition programs and mental health or assistance benefits.
  • Files a federal report for an employee health plan (Form 5500, 2024 plan year).
  • Employer retirement contributions averaged $3,200 per active participant in 2024, from Form 5500 filings. The median among employers Workarma tracks is about $2,300.
  • CEO pay was 283 times the median employee's pay, company-wide, in its latest proxy statement.
  • Median offered pay on 31 H-1B filings for Texas jobs was 1.46 times the prevailing wage, October 2024 to June 2026 (U.S. Department of Labor).
  • No OSHA serious, willful, or repeat citations matched to this employer in Texas, last 5 years.

Government enforcement records are mostly complaint-driven. A short record is not proof of good conditions, and a long one can reflect a large workforce or active reporting.
