Industry and occupational employment projections are estimates of expected future employment levels and growth rates. These projections contain a degree of uncertainty, as it is impossible to predict with precision future developments that may impact the labor market such as economic shocks or new technologies. Projections are updated every other year to incorporate new data and developments, among other updates. To assess future employment trends, we suggest focusing on the direction and relative size of projected changes, rather than on the precise value estimates.
