Long-Term Industry Projections

Long-term industry employment projections represent a valuable data source for those interested in future employment trends. Data are currently available for approximately 90 industries (at the 3-digit NAICS industry level).

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.

The dashboard below can be used to explore the data in multiple ways.
