New York State Department of Labor Labor Statistics

Fastest Growing Occupations

Long-term occupational employment projections represent an extensive and valuable data source for those interested in future employment patterns. It is important to note they measure only occupational demand. When exploring career options, employment projections are most useful when used with other types of data, such as supply of workers in a particular occupation, educational requirements, wages, etc. It is also important to note that these projections are intended to capture long-term occupational trends, and are not designed to reflect short-term business cycle fluctuations in the New York State economy.

Current regional projections cover the 2008-2018 period. The data is updated every two years. The regional projections are also available by downloading the file, proj.zip. This compressed archive, which consists of a comma-separated-value (CSV) data file, can be uncompressed with either the winzip or pkunzip utility programs. For more information concerning Occupational Projections, see Technical Notes.
