What do employer safety grades mean?

Safety grades compare an employer's OSHA DART injury rate against industry averages. Grade A means significantly below average injury rates; Grade F means significantly above. See our Interpreting Safety Grades guide for methodology.

How reliable is H-1B salary data for compensation benchmarking?

H-1B filings reflect wages for visa-sponsored positions specifically. These are legal filings to the DOL and reflect actual offered compensation, but may not represent overall company pay scales. See our salary negotiation guide.

What the Data Says About SkyWest Airlines

SkyWest Airlines operating in UT within the Transportation & Warehousing sector appears across multiple federal and state datasets that every job seeker, investigative reporter, and compliance researcher should know about. The company has filed 24 H-1B labor condition applications with a median disclosed wage of $267,179. Records here combine U.S. Department of Labor disclosures and state workforce agency filings. Each row on this page is sourced directly from a public government record, not a paid vendor or crowd-sourced review site, so the numbers reflect legally filed disclosures rather than opinion.

On workplace safety, SkyWest Airlines posted a DART (Days Away, Restricted, Transferred) rate of 2.16 injuries per 100 full-time workers, compared with an industry peer average of 2.55. Our composite grade of "C" translates that raw rate into a relative benchmark so a job seeker can compare a hospital chain to a warehouse or a bank to a food processor without chasing down OSHA formulas. Across all years on file, OSHA logged 77 reportable injuries at this employer.

The layoff history is material here: 1 WARN Act notice affecting 2,260 workers has been filed against SkyWest Airlines. The WARN Act requires 60 days of advance notice before mass layoffs or plant closings at employers with 100 or more workers, and those notices are filed publicly with state workforce agencies. A clustered pattern of notices often precedes earnings downgrades, bankruptcy filings, or private-equity-driven restructurings, so prospective employees should weigh this history alongside salary and safety data when evaluating an offer. Everything on this page is re-pulled each ETL cycle so stale disclosures don't linger and cross-portal links to industry and metro peers stay accurate.
