Each factor is scored out of 20. The five factors add up to the total out of 100. How we score
What the public record shows
Each fact comes from a government record or the company's own materials.
- 2.83 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 0.64 (BLS, 2024).
- 1.72 injuries per 100 full-time workers led to days away, restricted duty, or a job transfer in 2025.
- 9 OSHA serious, willful, or repeat citations in Texas, last 5 years, from 9 inspections since 2020.
- 1 unfair labor practice charge filed with the NLRB against this employer in Texas, last 5 years. A charge is an allegation, not a finding.
- Files a federal report for an employee health plan (Form 5500, 2024 plan year).
- Median offered pay on 24 H-1B filings for Texas jobs was 1.37 times the prevailing wage, October 2024 to June 2026 (U.S. Department of Labor).
- No layoff notices filed with the Texas Workforce Commission in the last 3 years.
- No EEOC lawsuits or conciliations announced against this employer, nationwide, 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.
