Employment change by industry sector, projected 2022–32
It is important to understand trend in the industry sector you plan to invest your career efforts in. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is a good place to derive statistical data to help you along the way. Here's a guide from BLS:
- The health care and social assistance sector is projected to add about 2.1 million jobs from 2022 to 2032, the most of any sector and about 45 percent of all new jobs. (See chart) This sector is also projected to grow faster than any other sector, growing at an annual rate of 1.0 percent. Four of the 10 fastest growing industries over the projections period come from within this sector, with the individual and family services industry projected to grow the fastest of those four–at an annual rate of 2.2 percent. Employment growth in the health care and social assistance sector is expected to be driven by both the aging population and a higher prevalence of chronic conditions, such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
- The computer systems design and related services industry is the eighth fastest growing industry, growing at a rate of 1.8 percent annually over the 2022−32 decade. This industry is also seen adding 474,800 jobs over the projections period, the second most of any industry. Employment opportunities in the computer systems design and related services industry are expected to arise because of demand for information technology and cybersecurity products and services.
