Preface One of the major objectives of the workforce development system is to encourage local workforce investment boards (LWIBs) to plan strategically and focus their resources in priority industries (and eventually on priority occupations within those industries). To assist in these efforts, the New York State Department of Labors Division of Research and Statistics decided to concentrate this report on industries identified as significant industries. Industries presented here are classified according to their North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code. This report lists significant industries based on various criteria. We hope the Workforce Investment Board, as well as others involved in the workforce system, may find it helpful in allocating their limited resources. Significant industries were identified on the basis of job counts, wage levels, job growth (both net and percent) over the 2006-2009 period, and expected job growth based on industry employment projections through 2016. Priority industries that may have been designated as such by economic development or workforce development officials were also considered. New York City Industries Twelve industries are designated as significant in this report. Ten of these industries managed to increase their employment levels between 2006 and 2009, despite the onset of a severe recession. In addition, 11 of these 12 industries are expected to grow faster than the overall economy through 2016. Collectively, these 12 industries account for about half the jobs in New York City. All significant industries shared one or more of the following characteristics: rapid growth (percentage basis); large growth (absolute basis); high wages (average weekly wage above the City average of $1,421 in 2009); or strong expected growth through 2016. The specific reason(s) why each industry was designated as significant are presented in the last column of the first table. A broad-based set of industries were identified for this report. They cover eight major industry groups: construction; trade; transportation and utilities; financial activities; professional and business services; educational services; health care and social assistance; leisure and hospitality; and other services. Industry Analysis In the following analysis, industries are presented in ascending NAICS industry code order. For additional information regarding the NAICS industry classification system, visit http://www.census.gov/epcd/naics07/.

Construction Skilled trades occupations comprise much of the employment within the construction of buildings (NAICS Industry 236) industry. Although construction is a highly cyclical industry, the long-term outlook is strong. Recently, a variety of factors lowered demand for construction work, including heavy layoffs in the industries that use the most office space, tight credit markets and the completion of a large number of projects started during better economic times. While the weakness should last into next year, there are some hopeful signs: both the job and credit markets are improving and several large universities have major expansion plans. Trade, Transportation and Utilities Food and beverages stores (NAICS Industry 445) is the second largest retail industry and has enjoyed strong growth in recent years. Expansion by national chains -- Costco, Whole Foods, BJs Wholesale, etc. -- played a key role in the recent job gains. Unlike many industries in this sector, food and beverage stores generally perform well during economic downturns. Financial Activities The securities, commodity contracts, and other financial investments industry (NAICS Industry 523) is a part of the broader financial activities supersector. Jobs in this industry are heavily concentrated geographically 90 percent of jobs in securities, commodity contracts, and other financial investments are in New York City and most of the rest are located in the Long Island and Hudson Valley regions. Although this industry is highly cyclical -- going through repeated boom and bust cycles -- it has grown over time. Currently, employment appears to be stabilizing after severe losses in 20082009. However, the real importance of this industry to the New York City economy is in its high wages. The weekly wage ($5,986) paid in the securities and commodity contracts industry is more than four times the all-industry average ($1,421) for 2009. Professional and Business Services Two industries from the professional and business services sector are on the significant industries list. They are: professional, scientific, and technical services (NAICS Industry 541) and administrative and support services (NAICS Industry 561). Although there are marked differences among these industries, they share one common trait: they tend to sell to other businesses rather than consumers. As a result, employment in these industries reacts very quickly to changing economic trends and often leads shifts in the overall job market. The outlook for this sector has improved greatly in recent months, as a stronger than expected bounce-back in corporate profits led to increased purchases of professional and support services. Professional, scientific, and technical services is the only significant industry that qualified based on all four measures it added jobs at a faster rate than the total for all industries between 2006 and 2009, it is the Citys second largest industry, it is expected to grow faster than average through 2016, and its average weekly wage is above the New York City average.

Administrative and support services lost jobs while the New York City total grew between 2006 and 2009. Nonetheless, this category is expected to grow much more rapidly as the economy expands in the coming years. Temporary help agencies are a large part of administrative and support services, which brings down the industrys overall average wage level, and also contributes to its volatility. Because of their sensitivity to economic trends these two significant industries will offer some of the best opportunities coming out of the recession. Educational Services With more than 325,000 jobs between the public and private sectors, educational services (NAICS Industry 611) is the largest of any significant industry. This sector added jobs (+4.1%) between 2006 and 2009, but is not expected to grow much faster than the Citys economy going forward. Long-term growth in educational services is driven more by demographics than by economic conditions. Trends such as a growing school-age population and an increasing portion of the population attending college drive employment demand. Health Care and Social Assistance Growth in health care industry employment is, like educational services, also driven more by demographics than by overall economic conditions. Many health care occupations are expected to see strong demand over the next decade as the population continues to expand and age. Growth in health care also benefits from continued technological innovation which both creates more demand for health care services and requires new types of technical skills. Laser eye surgery and joint replacement surgery are good examples of this trend. Two health care industries -- ambulatory health care services (NAICS Industry 621) and nursing and residential care facilities (NAICS Industry 623) -- are on the significant industries list. Ambulatory health care services was the fastest-growing significant industry between 2006 and 2009 and is also projected to be the fastest growing through 2016. Nursing and residential care facilities grew at a much slower rate but still outperformed the overall job market and is expected to do so in the future. More than most industries, health care industries offer a wide range of occupational opportunities. There are health care occupations with large numbers of jobs, or occupations that are rapidly growing and require few skills, but offer low wages (home health aides). There are also technical jobs that require some training and offer average pay (dental assistants) and high wage jobs that require considerable training and educational credentials (registered nurses). These industries are also major employers of clerical and administrative workers. Social assistance (NAICS Industry 624) is a large industry that has enjoyed steady growth for many years and is expected to continue to perform well in the future. It is similar to jobs in health care and education in that many of the services this industry provides are not directly tied to the economic cycle, but tend be required even during downturns. For the same reason, it should be expected to perform relatively well during a recovery. However, because a large 3

portion of this industrys jobs are supported by government spending, it often performs relatively poorly in the early phases of a recovery because government revenues have not recovered yet. Leisure & Hospitality Two industries from this sector -- accommodation (NAICS Industry 721) and food services and drinking places (NAICS Industry 722) are on the significant industries list. Accommodation is on the significant industries list because it experienced above-average job growth. The outlook is also positive, as jobs are expected to grow faster than the overall economy through 2016. Food services and drinking places added the most jobs of any significant industry, and is expected to grow somewhat faster than the overall economy going forward. This industry has the lowest average weekly wage of all 12 significant industries. Many of its largest occupations require only short-term training and offer wages well below the median wage for all occupations. However, food services and drinking places also offers considerable opportunity for advancement to a higher-paying supervisory position. Leisure and hospitality, which is usually hurt by national recessions, has performed well during this downturn. Job gains in this sector were helped by New York Citys growing popularity as a tourist destination, aggressive price cuts by hotels and restaurants, and a steady stream of new hotel openings. Going forward, rising corporate profits should lead to a recovery in business travel. Other Services Other services is a mix of personal and laundry services, auto repair, religious and charitable organizations, and business and civic associations. The largest industry in this sector, religious, grantmaking, civic, professional and similar organizations (NAICS 813), is on the significant industries list. In recent years, this sector has been a slow but steady source of new jobs. It is also expected to grow at a moderately above-average rate through 2016. While this industry employs a wide variety of occupations everything from clergy to public relations specialists it is also a large employer of clerical and administrative workers.
