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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

“Because the likelihood of experiencing health complications increases with age, the aging population is expected to boost demand for a wide variety of healthcare and social services, including home health and personal care services,” the BLS wrote.<\/p>\n

Nurse practitioners were at the top of the list, with the profession’s employment expected to grow by 41% over the 2025 to 2035 period. That growth rate represents an estimated gain of about 137,800 nurse practitioner jobs.<\/p>\n

The second-fastest growing occupation in the report is solar photovoltaic panel installer, with the role expected to grow 36.5%, or about 11,300 jobs added through 2035.<\/p>\n

BLS noted that demand for electricity “is expected to grow significantly” over that period, boosting demand for roles like solar panel installers and another role ranked further down the list.<\/p>\n

Data scientists ranked third, with employment growing by 34.6%, or 95,400 jobs, while wind turbine technicians were projected as the fourth-fastest growing role with a growth rate of 29.5%, or 3,500 jobs in the 2025-2035 period.<\/p>\n

Medical and health services manager roles were projected to grow by 24.2%, with the largest nominal employment growth of 155,100 jobs added in that time.<\/p>\n

Physical therapist assistants were the sixth-fastest growing role in the BLS report, with projected growth of 23%, or 26,200 jobs, through 2035.<\/p>\n

Continuing the trend of healthcare roles dominating the 10 fastest-growing roles over the next decade, psychiatric technicians ranked seventh on the list at a 22.3% growth rate and 36,000 jobs added in the next decade.<\/p>\n

The three roles that rounded out the list of the 10 fastest growing occupations from 2025 to 2035 were computer and information research scientists, with growth of 21.8% and 8,400 jobs; occupational therapy assistants, with a 21.5% growth rate and 11,200 jobs; and ophthalmic medical technicians, with a 21.4% growth rate and 15,500 jobs.<\/p>\n
