- An estimated 19% now and 22% by the end of 2028, on METR's long-run pace at four in five, from the workforce Primoris Services Corporation's own annual report describes and BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster.

- 18,526 as of December 31, 2025, as its annual report for the period ending December 31, 2025 states as the sum of the parts it gives.
