Job Openings very small number
  Less than 1000 average annual openings are expected for this occupation between 2021 and 2031.

Employment small occupation
  This was a small occupation in the United States, employing 76,300 workers in 2021.
(The National average for all occupations is 142,207 workers)
Growth Declining growth
  Employment may be adversely affected by the decline in First-Class Mail volume caused by the continued increase in the use of automated and electronic bill pay and email. The postal service will likely need fewer workers because new mail sorting technology can read text and automatically sort, forward, and process mail.
