Why it matters
These projections provide essential guidance for workforce development, education planning, and career seekers navigating the evolving economy.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) recently released a report projecting how the U.S. workforce will grow from 2025 to 2035 and what professions will see the largest increases in jobs as the economy evolves. Employment projections from the BLS estimate that the U.S. economy will add a total of 5.9 million jobs from 2025 to 2035, lifting total employment from 170.3 million to 176.2 million in that period. That would amount to a 3.5% growth rate, which is slower than the 10.9% growth rate from 2015 to 2025. The report also detailed what it projects as the 10 fastest-growing occupations from 2025 to 2035, with the list dominated by roles in the healthcare industry, as well as some in the energy sector.
