Job growth is going to slow dramatically over the next decade, but some
professions are poised to see intense demand.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is projecting 5.2 million new jobs from 2024 to
2034, a 3.1% growth rate over the next decade that’s much less than the 12%
growth posted over the past decade. The slide is due in large part to the
ascendance of Gen Z workers, a much smaller generation entering the
workforce at a time when the large baby boomer generation continues to retire.
Some industries will see above-average job gains, according to the BLS. Health
care and social assurance has the highest projected growth rate of any sector, at
8.4%. Demand for artificial-intelligence systems and technology is expected to
drive 7.5% growth in the professional, scientific and technical-services sector,
and 6.5% growth in the information sector.
