The filing states 5,000 employees by region making specialty papers, films, nettings and nonwovens with nothing counted by product line, 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: 15% now, 22% 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, 10% people work and 65% 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 72% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 23% 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
5,000 employees as of December 31, 2025 (stated). The filing states 59% of employees in North America, 33% in Europe and 8% in Asia Pacific; North America is not a U.S. count, so the share stays null with the regional figures noted.
The filing: “We employ approximately 5,000 employees, including certain manufacturing employees represented by unions.”
