Occupational employment projections to 2012: employment in professional and related and in service occupations are expected to increase the fastest and add the most jobs from 2002 to 2012, while office and administrative support occupations should grow about half as fast as the total; production occupations should grow very slowly
Daniel E. Hecker
Total employment is projected to increase by 21.3 million jobs over the 2002-12 period, rising to 165.3 million, according to the latest projections of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. (1) This increase represents about 600,000 more jobs than were added over the previous 10-year period (1992-2002). The projected 14.8-percent increase, however, is less than the 16.8-percent increase of the previous 10-year period. Self employment is projected to decline 2.3 percent, from 11.5 to 11.2 million.
This article discusses a number of aspects of the projections along with related information:
* changes in the structure of employment at the major occupational group level;
* the detailed occupations (2) that are projected to grow fastest as well as those with the largest numerical increases and decreases, along with their current educational and training requirements and earnings; and
* the total job openings projected to occur due to growth in the economy and the net replacement needs resulting from workers who leave the labor force or transfer to other occupations
In this article, projected employment is analyzed from two perspectives–percent change and numerical change–because one can be large and the other small, depending on the size of employment in the base year. The following example using data for two occupations generally requiring the same level of education–a bachelor’s degree–illustrates the importance of viewing job outlook from both perspectives:
Employment of environmental engineers is
projected to grow twice as fast as employment
of accountants and auditors over the
2002-12 period, 38.2 percent, compared
with 19.5 percent. However, the accountants
and auditors occupation is projected
to add more than 11 times the number of
new jobs (205,000 compared with 18,000),
because employment was so much larger
than for environmental engineers in 2002
(1,055,000 compared with 47,000).
Major occupational groups
Among the major occupational groups, employment in the two largest in 2002–professional and related occupations and service occupations–will increase the fastest and add the most jobs from 2002 to 2012. (See table 1.) These major groups, which are on opposite ends of the educational attainment and earnings spectrum, are expected to provide more than half of the total job growth from 2002 to 2012. Employment is projected to grow about as fast as overall employment in management, business, and financial occupations and in construction and extraction occupations. Employment in installation, maintenance, and repair; transportation and material moving; and sales and related occupations will grow somewhat more slowly. The three slowest growing groups–all with rates less than 7 percent–are office and administrative support occupations; farming, fishing, and forestry occupations; and production occupations.
As a result of the different growth rates among the major occupational groups, the occupational distribution of total employment will change somewhat by the year 2012, but the relative ranking of the groups by employment size is not expected to change. Professional and related occupations will continue to rank first, while farming, fishing, and forestry occupations will continue to rank last. Professional and related and service occupations will significantly increase their relative share of employment–by 1.5 and 0.9 percentage points, respectively. However, office and administrative support occupations and production occupations should decrease significantly–by 1.2 and 0.8 points, respectively. (See table 1.)
The growth of occupational groups (and occupations) is determined, in large part, by growth in industries in which they are concentrated. For example, professional occupations are projected to grow the fastest, in large part because they are concentrated in some fast-growing industries such as healthcare and social assistance; and professional, scientific, and technical services; while production occupations are projected to grow very slowly, largely because 7 out of 10 are in the declining manufacturing sector. (3)
The number of management, business, and financial workers is projected to grow by 2.4 million from 2002 to 2012. Within this occupational group, about one-fifth of the new jobs will be in professional, scientific, and technical services, which include management, scientific, and technical consulting, and accounting, tax preparation, bookkeeping, and payroll services. About 1 new job in 8 is projected for finance and insurance, and 1 in 9, for healthcare and social assistance. The self-employed in this group, accounting for one-fifth of the total, are projected to decline 5.6 percent. Overall projected growth among management, business, and financial workers is affected by the decline of farmers and ranchers, most self-employed, by 238,000. (See table 2.) Excluding farmers and ranchers, this major group is projected to increase 18.3 percent. The self-employed, excluding self-employed farmers and ranchers, are projected to increase 4.0 percent, with the largest increase for management analysts.
Employment in professional and related occupations is projected to grow the fastest and to add more workers (6.5 million) than any other major group. Three-tenths of the growth in these occupations is projected to take place in healthcare and social services, a quarter in government, and a seventh in professional, scientific, and technical services. There are eight occupational subgroups within professional and related occupations. Three occupational subgroups–education, training, and library; healthcare practitioners and technical; and computer and mathematical should account for three-quarters of the job growth.
A 6.1-percent increase is projected for self-employed professional and related occupations. Most growth among self-employed is projected for two subgroups–arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations and computer and mathematical occupations.
Education, training, and library occupations are projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations, adding 2.1 million jobs as shown on p. 97 (also, see table 2):
Professional and related Percent Numeric change
occupations subgroup change (in thousands)
Computer and mathematical 34.8 1,051
Community and social service 26.2 574
Healthcare practitioners
and technical 26.0 1,708
Education, training, and library 24.7 2,109
Life, physical, and social science 17.2 212
Arts, design, entertainment,
sports, and media 16.5 393
Legal 16.2 190
Architecture and engineering 8.6 222
This group is projected to grow as the school-age population increases; a greater proportion of preschool-age children attend school; a greater proportion of students are provided with special education; and classes become smaller. In addition, rapid growth is expected in the number of adults attending both career and job training schools and self-enrichment classes. More than 3 out of 5 new jobs are projected for government and 1 in 5 for rapidly-growing private educational services. (4)
Healthcare practitioners and technical occupations are projected to add 1.7 million jobs, as the demand for healthcare services continues to grow rapidly. (See p. 101 for a discussion of reasons for growth.) More than 3 out of 4 new jobs in these occupations are expected to be in the healthcare industry. Relatively few new jobs, and slow growth, are projected in government. (5) Registered nurses, by far the largest occupation in this group, should account for more than 1 out of 3 new jobs. The number of self-employed workers in this group is projected to decline slightly. Self-employed physicians are expected to decline significantly, as employment shifts into incorporated group practices, while self-employed registered nurses, chiropractors, veterinarians, and speech-language pathologists are projected to increase.
Computer and mathematical occupations are projected to add 1.1 million jobs, and grow the fastest among the eight subgroups. The demand for computer-related occupations should increase, despite the recent downturn, as a result of rapid advances in computer technology and the demand for new computer applications, including those for the Internet and Intranets. Growth will not be as rapid as during the previous decade, however, as the software industry begins to mature and as routine work is increasingly outsourced overseas. More than a third of new jobs will be in computer systems design and related services, and one-fifth will be in the information industry–primarily in software publishers, data processing and related, and Internet-related industries. In both groups, projected growth for these occupations exceeds 50 percent. In addition, in many industries, employment of these workers is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations. Self-employed computer and mathematical workers are expected to increase 39.8 percent.
Community and social services occupations are projected to add 574,000 jobs. Continued rapid growth should result as the elderly population increases rapidly and as greater efforts are made to provide services for the disabled, the sick, substance abusers, and individuals and families in crisis. Within this occupational group, about 3 out of 5 new jobs are expected to be in the healthcare and social assistance industry and 1 out of 5 in religious organizations. Slow growth and 1 new job in 8 are projected for the large government sector.
Arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations are projected to add 393,000 jobs. About one-fifth of these new jobs is projected for professional, scientific, and technical services, which includes both advertising and computer systems design and related services. One job in seven is projected for the information sector, which includes both motion pictures and publishing industries. About one-sixth of the growth is expected for self-employed workers (a 9.3-percent increase), with largest increases for writers and authors, graphic designers, musicians and singers, and photographers.
Architecture and engineering jobs are projected to grow slowly, adding 222,000 jobs. About 2 out of 5 new jobs in these occupations are projected for the professional, scientific, and technical services industry. One new job in 6 is projected for the rapidly growing employment services industry, which provides employees to other industries on a contract or fee basis. One new job in 8 is projected for government. In manufacturing industries–which employed a third of these workers in 2002–little change is projected. Engineers, the largest occupational subgroup, is expected to grow 7.3 percent.
Life, physical, and social scientists are projected to add 212,000 jobs. More than a quarter of these jobs are projected for the professional, scientific, and technical services industry which includes scientific consulting services and scientific research and development services. Nearly a quarter of new jobs is projected in government and 1 new job in 7 is projected for rapidly-growing healthcare and social assistance. Self-employed are projected to grow slowly, with most growth among psychologists.
Legal occupations are projected to add 190,000 jobs, with about 7 of 10 projected for the legal services industry, where these occupations should increase rapidly. A quarter of all growth is projected for government. Paralegals and legal assistants are projected to grow the fastest, while lawyers should add the most jobs, 118,000. The number of self-employed workers in this group is projected to decline 7.0 percent, all among lawyers, reflecting the difficulty in establishing new legal practices.
Employment in service occupations is projected to increase by 5.3 million, the second largest numerical gain and second highest rate of growth among the major occupational groups. For these occupations, about 3 out of 10 new jobs, and fastest growth, are projected for the healthcare and social assistance industry. A quarter of new jobs are projected for the accommodation and food services industry. The number of self-employed service workers is projected to increase slightly.
Of the five subgroups making up service occupations, food preparation and serving-related occupations was the largest in 2002–with 10.2 million jobs–and is projected to add the most jobs, about 1.6 million. Nevertheless, it has the slowest projected growth. (See table 2.) Nearly 4 of 5 new jobs are projected for the accommodation and food services industry. The following tabulation shows the percent and numeric change for the services occupation subgroups:
Percent Numeric change
change (in thousands)
Healthcare support 34.5 1,143
Protective service 24.7 769
Personal care and service 20.6 917
Building and grounds
cleaning and maintenance 16.4 901
Food preparation
and serving related 15.8 1,607
Healthcare support occupations are projected to add 1.1 million jobs, growing the fastest of the services subgroups. (See p. 101 for a discussion of reasons for growth.) Seven out of eight new jobs are projected for the healthcare and social assistance industry. Self-employed healthcare support occupations are projected to grow 16.6 percent, with most growth among massage therapists.
Personal care and service occupations are projected to add 917,000 jobs. Nearly half of new jobs, and the fastest growth (51.6 percent) for these occupations, are projected in the healthcare and social assistance industry. One new job in 6 is projected for arts, entertainment, and recreation, which includes amusement parks and fitness and recreational sports centers. Overall growth is retarded by a 1.6-percent decline among the self-employed, who made up a quarter of all workers in this group in 2002. Declines among self-employed are primarily among first-line supervisors/managers of personal care and service workers (mostly proprietors of small businesses) and childcare workers.
Building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations are projected to add 901,000 jobs. Forty-five percent of new jobs, and fast growth, are projected for administrative and support and waste management and remediation services, which includes both services to buildings and dwellings and employment services. About 1 job in 8 is projected for healthcare and social assistance and 1 in 10 each in accommodation and food service and government. A 39,000 decline is projected in the private household sector, where 10 percent of these workers were employed. Only 2.9-percent growth is projected for the self-employed. Among the self-employed, landscaping and groundskeeping workers, as well as first-line supervisors/managers of these workers, are projected to increase, while maids and housekeeping cleaners are expected to decline.
Protective service occupations are projected to add 769,000 jobs. Half of the growth is projected for government, and nearly two-fifths is projected for rapidly growing investigation and security services.
Employment in sales and related occupations is projected to increase by 2 million. More than 3 out of 5 new jobs are projected for retail trade, and 1 in 8 for wholesale trade. The self-employed made up 12 percent of this group in 2002. Their employment is projected to decline by 9 percent, with the largest decreases among self-employed first-line supervisors/managers of sales workers (owners of stores or other marketing businesses); retail sales workers; and door-to-door sales workers, news and street vendors, and related workers.
Employment in office and administrative support occupations is projected to increase by 1.6 million but grow slowly. More than a quarter of these new jobs are projected for rapidly-growing employment services, which provides employees to other industries on a contract or fee basis. A quarter of new jobs are projected for the healthcare and social assistance industries, and 1 in 6 for professional, scientific, and technical services. In almost all industries, employment of these workers are expected to grow more slowly than overall employment, due to continued office automation, including that related to electronic business, (6) and as organizations make greater use of temporary workers employed by the employment services industry. Thirteen out of 30 occupations with the largest projected job declines, including word processors and typists; stock clerks and order fillers; and secretaries, except legal, medical, and executive, are in this group. (See table 5.) However, a number of personal-contact occupations, such as receptionists and information clerks, and bill and account collectors, are less affected by changing technology, and have relatively large projected growth.
Farming, fishing, and forestry occupations are projected to grow by 35,000 jobs. Self-employed are projected to decline 7.6 percent, with most declines among fishers and related fishing workers. (Agricultural managers, including farmers and ranchers, are classified with management, business, and financial occupations.)
The construction and extraction occupations major group is projected to add 1.1 million jobs, with 7 out of 10 in the construction industry. One new job in 9, and fastest growth, is projected for the employment services industry. A decline of 10,000 is projected for the mining industry–mostly for extraction workers. Self-employed construction and extraction workers are projected to increase slightly. Self-employed first-line supervisors/managers of construction trades and extraction workers (mostly contractors) are projected to increase, while self-employed carpenters are projected to decline.
Installation, maintenance, and repair occupations are projected to add 776,000 jobs. About 1 new job in 6 is projected for retail trade, which includes motor vehicle and parts dealers; 1 new job in 8 is projected for the construction industry, and 1 in 10, for automotive repair and maintenance. Self-employed workers in this group are projected to remain unchanged. Self-employed heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration mechanics and installers are projected to increase, but others are projected to decline.
Production occupations are expected to add 354,000 jobs. Most growth is projected for rapidly-growing employment services, which provides employees to other industries on a contract or fee basis, while some growth is projected for wholesale and retail trade. Manufacturing, which employed 7 out of I0 production workers in 2002, is projected to lose nearly 200,000 of these workers. Self-employed production workers are projected to decline 8.8 percent, with largest declines among apparel occupations and woodworkers.
Transportation and material moving occupations are projected to add 1.3 million jobs. More than 2 out of 5 new jobs should be in transportation and warehousing, and 1 in 4, in employment services. Little change is projected for these workers in manufacturing, where 1 out of 6 was employed in 2002. Water transportation occupations are projected to grow slowly, while railroad occupations continue their long-term decline. Nearly half of new jobs should be for truck drivers and driver/sales workers. Little change is projected for self-employed transportation workers.
Detailed occupations
This section focuses in occupations that are the fastest growing, have the largest numeric increases, and have the largest numeric declines. Data on numeric and percent growth for nearly 700 detailed occupations are presented in table 2.
The growth rates for detailed occupations range from an increase of 59 percent for medical assistants to a decline of 56 percent for telephone operators. Numeric growth ranges from 623,000 additional jobs for registered nurses to a decline of 238,000 farmers and ranchers. The 30 occupations with the largest numeric increase (table 4) account for 44 percent of the 21.3-million total increase over the 2002-12 period. The 30 occupations that are projected as the fastest growing (table 3) have growth rates of 35 percent or greater, more than twice the average for all occupations or faster. Six occupations–three health related, two computer, and one education, are included in both groups–personal and home care aides; medical assistants; home health aides; computer software engineers, application; computer systems analysts; and postsecondary teachers.
Fastest growing occupations. Fifteen of the 30 fastest growing occupations are health related, 7 are computer-related occupations, 3 are teachers, and 3 are environment related. (See table 3.) The others are social and human services assistants, and fitness trainers and aerobics instructors.
The two healthcare groups discussed in the previous section–healthcare practitioners and technical occupations, and healthcare support occupations–have a combined growth rate of 28.8 percent. Rapid growth among health-related occupations reflects an aging population that requires more healthcare, a wealthier population that can afford better healthcare, and advances in medical technology that permit more health problems to be treated more aggressively. However, job growth among health-related occupations will be limited by efforts to control the rapid growth of spending on healthcare, both by private medical insurers and by government–to restrict the growth of Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements. Even so, continued efforts to control healthcare costs should stimulate some health-related occupations (mostly aides, assistants, and technicians) to grow even more rapidly than overall health employment. They will assume some duties formerly done by more highly paid healthcare workers, such as dentists, physicians, and therapists. These include dental assistants, dental hygienists, physician assistants, physical therapist assistants and aides, and occupational therapist assistants and aides. Some healthcare occupations also will grow more rapidly than overall healthcare employment because they are more likely to provide services to the rapidly growing older population. These include some listed above, such as physical and occupational therapist assistants and aides, as well as physical therapists, occupational therapists, and respiratory therapists. Employment of medical assistants should grow the fastest of any occupation, as they perform an increasing share of administrative and clinical duties in rapidly-growing offices of physicians.
The number of medical records and health information technicians employed also is expected to grow rapidly due to the need to maintain records for an increasing number of medical tests, treatments, and procedures that will undergo greater scrutiny by third-party payers, regulators, courts, and consumers. Employment of home health aides and of personal and home care aides (included in this discussion of health-related occupations but classified as a personal service occupation in table 2) also should be stimulated, as the older population grows and as efforts to contain healthcare costs continue. The older population is more likely to need in-home healthcare, as well as personal care and housekeeping that these workers provide. In addition, patients of all ages are being discharged from hospitals and nursing facilities as early as possible. These aides also provide care to this rapidly growing group of patients. Employment of veterinary technologists and technicians, also classified as a healthcare occupation, is projected to grow rapidly as pet owners spend more on advanced animal care services, such as preventive dental care and surgical procedures.
The increasing demand for computer-related occupations reflects the rapid advances in computer technology and the continuing development of new computer applications, including the Internet and Intranets. Overall, computer specialists, a component of computer and mathematical occupations, is projected to grow 35.8 percent; and computer and information systems managers–classified within management, business, and financial occupations–is projected to grow 36.1 percent. (See table 2.) Two computer-related occupations also are among the occupations with the largest projected numerical job growth. (See table 4).
Employment of environmental engineers; environmental science and protection technicians, including health; and hazardous material removal workers will be stimulated by a need to met environmental regulations, develop methods of cleaning up existing hazards, and, more generally, respond to increasing public concern for a safe and clean environment.
Employment of postsecondary school teachers is projected to grow as the population of 18- to 24-year-olds increases and as more adults return to college, but the number of tenure-track positions is expected to decline as institutions seek flexibility in dealing with financial matters and changing student interests. Employment of preschool teachers, except special education, should grow as the proportion of preschool-age children attending school increases, while employment of self-enrichment education teachers is expected to grow as more people embrace lifelong learning, particularly retired baby boomers.
Fitness trainers and aerobics instructors are projected to grow rapidly, due to rising interest in personal training, aerobics classes, and other fitness activities. Social and human service assistants are projected to grow rapidly as employers attempt to control costs in the face of rapid growth in demand for services. Social service agencies are restructuring services and hiring more lower-paid social and human service assistants instead of social workers.
Twenty-one of the 30 fastest growing occupations generally require a postsecondary vocational award or a degree. (7) This is consistent with growth rates by major group presented in the previous section. The fastest growing group, professional and related, is made up mostly of occupations that generally require this level of education. Thirteen of the fastest growing occupations are concentrated in the first earnings quartile and eight in the third earnings quartile.
Occupations with the largest job growth. Very large occupations with average or even below-average growth rates provide many job openings, as do very fast growing ones with smaller base-year employment. These 30 occupations shown on table 4 are from a much broader range of occupational groups than are the 30 fastest growing. Five are health related, and six are service occupations other than those related to health, including three in food service and two in building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations. Four each are in education, training, and library, and in sales and related occupations. Three each are in management, business, and financial, and in office and administrative support occupations; and two each are in computer and mathematical, and in transportation and material moving major occupation groups; one is installation, maintenance, and repair.
Twenty-one of the 30 had 2002 employment of 1 million or more. Of the others, seven have projected growth at least twice the 14.8-percent average for all occupations. The three largest occupations in 2002, each with employment of 3 million or more, are projected to grow more slowly than the total for all occupations.
Registered nurses and nursing aides, orderlies, and attendants–by far the two largest health-related occupations in 2002–are projected to have more numerical growth than any other health-related occupations. Home health aides, medical assistants, and personal and home care aides, all among the 30 fastest growing, are also on this list. The four largest education, training, and library occupations in 2002–postsecondary teachers; elementary school teachers, except special education; teachers assistants; and secondary school teachers, except special and vocational education–are also among the top 30 occupations. Of the four sales and related occupations: retail salespersons and cashiers, except gaming are projected to grow about as fast as the average for all occupations; while sales representatives, wholesale and manufacturing, except technical and scientific products are projected to grow somewhat faster. First-line supervisors/ managers of retail sales workers are projected to grow relatively slowly, with a 9.7-percent decline among the self-employed (owners of stores and other retail businesses).
Management analysts and security guards are projected to grow about twice as fast as the average for all occupations, while accountants and auditors and general and operations managers should grow somewhat faster than the average. The list has three food-service occupations–combined food preparation and serving workers, including fast food and waiters and waitresses, have base-year employment of about 2 million, while food preparation workers has 850,000. Of the two transportation and material moving occupations: truck drivers, heavy and tractor trailer; and truck drivers, light and delivery services, are projected to grow 19 and 23 percent, respectively. Among building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations, janitors and cleaners is projected to have more openings than landscaping and groundskeeping workers, even though the latter is projected to grow faster. Of the three office and administrative support occupations, customer service representatives and receptionists and information clerks are projected to grow rapidly, while office clerks, general, with employment of 3 million, is projected to grow relatively slowly.
Half of the 30 occupations with the largest numerical job growth are in the short-term on-the-job training category, and 9 are in the associate or higher degree category. Of those with the largest numeric increases, 9 are in the first, and 10 are in the fourth earnings quartile.
Declining occupations. This section of the article focuses just on those occupations with the largest numerical job declines because many detailed occupations with the fastest rates of decline are small, with very small employment declines. (See table 5.) Thirteen of the occupations with the largest declines are office and administrative support, 11 are production, and 3 are sales and related. Others are farmers and ranchers, fishers and related fishing workers, and announcers. Changes in technology or business practices will reduce the demand for most of the 30 occupations.
Advances in computer, optical scanning, and voice recognition technologies and growth in electronic business will reduce demand for word processors and typists; stock clerks and order fillers; secretaries, except legal, medical, and executive; telephone operators; postal service mail sorters, processors, and processing machine operators; loan interviewers and clerks; data entry keyers; order clerks; and other office and administrative support occupations. (8) Advances in technology, such as faster machines and more automated processes, and a shift of assembly and other production activities to other countries will lower employment for electrical and electronic equipment assemblers, team assemblers, chemical plant and systems operators, and mixing and blending machine workers. Prepress technicians and workers also will be affected as electronic publishing and printing-on-demand limit the production of printed material.
Employment in the textile and apparel industries will decline, due to greater imports–as import quotas are lifted–and to improved production technology. This will cause employment declines for sewing machine operators; sewers, hand; and the four textile machine operator occupations listed on table 5. Farmers and ranchers will decline as market pressures cause farm consolidation and as farm technology improves.
Employment of travel agents should decline as more travelers rely on the Internet to book travel. Telemarketers will decrease as more people opt out of receiving calls and as blocking technology improves. Door-to-door sales workers, news and street vendors, and related workers will decline due to competition from stores and on-line outlets. Radio and television station consolidation and improved editing and other off-air technologies are expected to lower employment of announcers. Fishers and related workers are projected to decline as the stock of fish decreases and the technology for finding fish improves.
Thirteen of the 30 occupations with the largest numerical declines were in the moderate-term on-the-job training category, 11 were in the short-term category, and none were in a degree category. Of the largest declines, 9 are in the second earnings quartile, and 16 are in the third earnings quartile.
Total job openings
In addition to occupational employment growth, another aspect of the demand for workers is the need to replace those who leave their jobs to enter other occupations, retire, or leave the labor force for other reasons. Job openings resulting from replacement needs are very important because, in most occupations, they exceed those resulting from employment growth. Even occupations that are projected to decline provide some job openings–for example, farmers and ranchers and aerospace engineers. (See table 2.)
The measure of replacement needs is complex because of the continuous movement of workers into and out of occupations. The replacement needs cited in this article are based on the net change in employment (entrants minus separations) in each age cohort over the projection period. Although this measure understates the total number of job openings in an occupation, it best represents the job openings for new labor force entrants over the projection period. (9)
Over the 2002-12 period, more job openings are expected to result from replacement needs (35 million) than from employment growth in the economy (21.3 million). Service occupations are projected to have the most total job openings, 13 million. The number of job openings due to net replacement needs should exceed the number due to growth in major groups with average or below-average projected growth, as well as those among service occupations, which includes many occupations with high turnover. Food preparation and serving occupations have particularly high replacement needs. However, healthcare support occupations should have only half as many replacement openings as growth openings.
The only major group with fewer openings from replacement needs than from employment growth is professional and related occupations, the fastest growing. Even within this group, however, replacement openings exceed growth openings in three subgroups–architecture and engineering; life, physical, and social scientists; and arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations.

The rankings were based on quartiles using one-fourth of total

(2) An occupation is placed into one of 11 categories that

workers to become fully qualified. For more information
about the categories, see Occupational Projections and
Training Data, Bulletin 2572 (Bureau of Labor
Statistics, forthcoming).
Notes
(1) Occupational projections presented in this article provide information to those interested in labor market issues. They also provide the background for analyses of future employment opportunities described in the forthcoming 2004-05 Occupational Outlook Handbook. The Internet version of this edition of the Handbook, which will be accessible at http://www.bls.gov/oco/, is expected to be available in late February 2004; the print version of the 2004-05 Handbook, BLS Bulletin 2570, should be available in Spring 2004. Job outlook information in the 2004-05 Handbook will use the projections presented in each of the articles in this issue of the Monthly Labor Review. For a description of the methodology used to develop employment projections, see BLS Handbook of Methods, Bulletin 2490 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, April 1997), pp. 122-29.
(2) Occupational data reflect the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification system. Base year employment data were developed using the 2002 Occupational Employment Statistics Survey, supplemented with data from the Current Population Survey for self-employed and unpaid family workers.
(3) The Bureau has recently shifted to the 2002 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Industry data in this article reflect this shift. The NAICS classification will also be used in an article on high technology in a forthcoming issue of the Review. The article will update High-technology employment: a broader view, which appeared in the June 1999 Review.
(4) Previous occupational projections articles in the Review included State and local government education employment and hospital employment in the education services and health services industries, respectively. This article includes them with government–as do industry output and employment projections articles in this and earlier issues of the Review.

(7) Education and training categories listed in tables 3, 4, and 5 show the category that best describes the education or training needed by most workers to become fully qualified. However, for many occupations there are other sources of education and training, as well. Data from the Bureau’s Current Population Survey show that for most occupations, workers have a variety of education levels. More detail on education and training is available in the Occupational Outlook Handbook; more on education and training categories is available in Occupational Projections and Training Data, Bulletin 2572 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, forthcoming). Also, see footnote 1.

(9) Net separations do not count all movements of workers out of an occupation, which is a measure termed total separations. For example, an opening caused by a worker who stops working for a period and then gets another job in his or her previous occupation would be counted in the measure of total separations but not net separations. See the discussion on the uses of replacement needs information developed in Occupational Projections and Training Data, Bulletin 2572 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, forthcoming).
