What follows from the reading
Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 22% now, 24% at the end of 2027, 25% at the end of 2028, 25% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 25% desk work, 12% people work and 63% body work. These are the site's industry estimates weighted by the shares below: estimates with a stated method and range, not a forecast of what the company will do. By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 74% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 20% becomes checking a model's work and 5% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
Headcount

The filing: “We had approximately 4,100 employees on February 28, 2026, down from 4,500 employees on March 1, 2025, of which 77% are male and 23% are female.”

Questions about this company
- How much of Apogee Enterprises, Inc.'s working time is within reach of AI?
- An estimated 22% now and 25% by the end of 2028, on METR's long-run pace at four in five, from the workforce Apogee Enterprises, Inc.'s own annual report describes and BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. It is an estimate with a stated method. It is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings, and it says nothing about what the company will do.
- How many people does Apogee Enterprises, Inc. employ?
- 4,100 as of February 28, 2026, as its annual report for the period ending February 28, 2026 states.
- What kinds of work make up Apogee Enterprises, Inc.'s workforce?
- Read from its annual report as a blend of 3 industry staffing patterns, the largest Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing (3323 and 3324 only); by those patterns the work is about 25% desk work, 12% people work and 63% body work. Each share has a one-sentence reason on this page that can be checked against the filing.
- What does Apogee Enterprises, Inc.'s annual report say about AI?
- 2 sentences in the filing name AI. Its annual reports for fiscal 2021 to 2025 name it in 0, 0, 0, 0 and 2 sentences, year by year. They are counted and quoted on this page, never judged: a count says how much a filing talks about AI, not what the company does with it.
- How is this estimated?
- Claude Fable 5.1 read the annual report under the Index's written rubric (version 1) on November 8, 2026: the stated headcount, the share in the U.S. when stated, and the workforce as a blend of industry staffing patterns. The estimates are the site's industry estimates weighted by those shares, from O*NET tasks with estimated lengths and METR's measurements of how long a task AI models can finish. A company can write to info@stratussc.com to have its reading checked against its filing.
