Notes:

Employment totals may not add up due to rounding, confidentiality or suppression.
Occupations with less than forty workers were suppressed and omitted from the table but are still represented in the totals and sub-totals.
Percent change is based on unrounded numbers.
SOC codes refer to the Standard Occupational Classification system used by the Occupational Employment Statistics program.
Replacement openings reflect permanent separations (such as death, retirement, disability, other), but do not reflect total job turnover.
p - Protected Data.
M/P - Metal and Plastic.
AO - All Other.
