Healthcare, Education, and Government Jobs Top Long Island's Job Market Growth Rates
Jobs in education, health care, and government dominate Long Island, NY. And according to Long Island Business News, those who work in these industries ''represent almost a third of the Long Island workforce, and their numbers are growing faster than any other market sector.'' Leading the way with 2,100 new jobs are health and education.
Meanwhile, jobs in the manufacturing and construction industry are decreasing. Over the past year there was a loss of 1,300 manufacturing jobs, which, according to chief economist for the Long Island Association Pearl Kamer, "have been consistently 'slipping away.'"
But total job growth, too, has dropped. The culprits? Kamer blames high taxes and the lack of affordable housing.
