Healthcare Jobs Hold Steady Despite Sour Economy
Posted on: Wednesday, February 25, 2009
Manufacturing and construction are the hardest hit sectors in the current economy. Health care jobs, however, appear to be holding steady. According to employment data released for January, health care jobs grew on average by 3% across both hospitals and practices for the year ending in January. Hospitals added approximately 137,000 workers to their rolls from January 2007-January 2008. Physician’s offices claim to have hired 66,600 workers in the same period.
In the month of January physician’s offices added about 7200 jobs while hospitals were responsible for 8000 new jobs. At the same time, American unemployment numbers reached epic levels. These statistics are proof positive that anyone considering a switch in their careers should consider it a no-brainer to retrain in the health care field. Current health care workers can also feel secure in their jobs where their neighbors may not be as fortunate.
