Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment forecasting Job classification Employment History Occupational Outlook Handbook (Book) keyword: Occupational outlook handbook -- History ab: The Occupational Outlook Handbook's statements on employment outlook are based on projections of employment change.

The procedures for developing the projections have changed a great deal over the years because of research devoted to improving methods for developing employment projections. Although the occupational projections developed have captured most of the general trends in occupational employment, the accuracy of these projections has not changed over time. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
