The Department of Labor and Employment JobsFit 2022 Labor Market Information Report has revealed the top 10 key employment generators for the years to come including: information technology and business process management; wholesale and retail trade; transport and logistics; manufacturing; construction; agribusiness; banking and finance; hotel, restaurant and tourism; education; and health and wellness.
(MANILA BULLETIN)
Key Employment Generators refer to major industry groups with the greatest potential to generate employment and absorb bulk of the workforce in the years to come.
A total of 95 in-demand occupations were also identified in the report, namely, administrative clerk, bartender, design engineer, factory worker, virtual assistant, engineers, among others.
Fifty-four occupations that were listed as hard-to-fill are 2D echocardiography technician, air duct worker, chemical engineer, geologist, statistician, and others.
According to DOLE, in-demand occupations refer to active job vacancies posted or advertised recurrently by and across establishments while hard-to-fill occupations refer to job vacancies to which the employer or company is having difficulty or taking longer time to be filled because job applicants are not qualified or there is no supply of job applicants for the particular job vacancy.
The report also listed 100 cross-cutting in-demand and hard-to-fill occupations including accountant, architect, civil engineer, dietitian, forester, laboratory technician, and mason.
The labor department said an occupation can be classified as both in-demand and hard-to-fill when advertised or posted recurrently by industries and the recruitment process takes a certain period of time to hire a suitable individual.
DOLE presented the report in Manila on December 17.
