An industrial products maker whose filing states 7,100 employees with 4,100 in the U.S. and nothing by segment, so valves lead by description with aerospace components and pumps beside them.
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: 18% now, 32% at the end of 2027, 38% at the end of 2028, 40% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 40% desk work, 14% people work and 46% 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 57% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 35% 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.

The workforce as industry patterns

|---|---|---|
| Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing (3321, 3322, 3325, 3326, and 3329 only) | 45% | By description (c): the Process Flow Technologies segment's valves, the larger part of its work, are industrial valves (NAICS 332911), with no count by segment, so a little under half is read at the fabricated metal group. |
| Aerospace Product and Parts Manufacturing | 40% | By description (c): the Aerospace and Electronics segment makes sensing, power, fluid management and braking components for aircraft and defense, aerospace parts (NAICS 3364), with no count by segment. |
| Machinery Manufacturing (3331, 3332, 3334, and 3339 only) | 15% | By description (c): the pumps and fluid handling systems in the Process Flow Technologies segment are general purpose machinery (NAICS 333914), with no count stated, so a share is read at the machinery group. |
