• Description:
  This Data Bulletin provides information on employment in construction, including trends over the past decade, the impact of COVID-19, and future projections. Current and future construction workforce trends provide stakeholders with information to identify resources needed to train the evolving workforce, as well as safety and health interventions. All national employment estimates and projections were obtained from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Total employment, employment by demographic and worker characteristics, and unemployment from 2011 to 2021 were estimated using BLS's Current Population Survey (CPS), which is published monthly. Employment for private nonfarm wage-and-salary workers and for construction subsectors from 2011 to 2021 was obtained from BLS's Current Employment Statistics (CES) program, which collects monthly data from payroll establishments. National occupational employment projections from 2020 to 2030 accounting for the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic were collected from the BLS Employment Projections program. State-level employment projections were obtained through Projections Central, a product of the Projections Managing Partnership, which the U.S. Department of Labor funds.
