What to check before working with Safeway Inc.
Safeway Inc. needs a three-way read: H-1B pay (180 LCAs), safety (grade F), and WARN history (37 notices); none of those alone is the rating.
- H-1B median is $173,487 across 134 disclosed-wage positions (of 180 total filings), benchmark any offer against it and the metro prevailing wage. Compare with peers
- Safety grade F reflects a DART rate read against the Retail Trade average of 2.92 - a relative benchmark, not an absolute verdict. How grades work
- 37 WARN layoff notices on file, review the timing before counting on job stability. Reading WARN notices
Safeway Inc.'s figures are legally filed public records (DOL, OSHA, state WARN), not reviews or vendor estimates; a missing row is not proof the underlying activity never happened.
