The filing states 14,800 regular employees across liquids pipelines, gas transmission and gas distribution in Canada and the United States, with no count by business, so the split is by description.

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: 22% now, 35% at the end of 2027, 41% at the end of 2028, 43% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 43% desk work, 13% people work and 44% 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 50% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 40% becomes checking a model's work and 6% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.

Headcount

14,800 employees as of December 31, 2025 (stated). Not stated; the operations are across Canada and the United States, where 65% of revenue arises.

The filing: “As at December 31, 2025, we had approximately 14,800 regular employees, including approximately 2,600 unionized employees across our North American operations.”

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.

14,800 as of December 31, 2025, as its annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025 states.

10 sentences in the filing name AI. Its annual reports for fiscal 2021 to 2025 name it in 0, 0, 0, 2 and 10 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 October 19, 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.
