BorgWarner Inc. (BWA)

Vehicle parts, 37,500 workforce, 69% hourly. Read October 2, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025, filed February 11, 2026. Ranked 36 of the 54 Consumer Cyclical companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

The filing counts its workforce by region and by salaried and hourly status (a) but not by segment, so one vehicle parts pattern carries it by description (c).

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.

What follows from the reading

Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 15% now, 24% at the end of 2027, 28% at the end of 2028, 29% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 29% desk work, 14% people work and 57% 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 70% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 24% becomes checking a model's work and 4% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.

• “If we do not continue to innovate and develop, or acquire, new and compelling products that capitalize upon new technologies, including artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning, or improve in response to OEM and consumer preferences, this could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.”
• “Further, we continually update and expand our information technology systems to enable us to run our business more efficiently, including the potential incorporation of AI solutions into our information systems and processes.”
• “The use of AI in the development of our products and services could also cause loss or theft of intellectual property as well as subject us to risks related to intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, data privacy and cybersecurity.”
• “In addition, if the content, analyses, or recommendations that AI programs assist in producing are or are alleged to be deficient, inaccurate, or biased, then our business, financial condition, and results of operations and our reputation may be adversely affected.”
