Employment in Rhode Island is projected to grow at
all education and skill levels, from jobs
requiring on-the-job training to those requiring
advanced degrees. During the projection period, it is estimated
that employers will need to find workers to fill over 186,000
job openings. Job openings result from the need to replace
workers who leave an occupation and from the need to fill vacancies
created by business expansion. One-third of the projected
job openings are attributed to the economic growth that
is expected to occur during the projection period. The remaining
job openings are due to replacement needs resulting from
employee turnover. Sixty percent of the job openings that are
expected during the ten-year projection period are likely to occur
among jobs requiring on-the-job training.
