Job Openings very small number
  A total of 7230 average annual openings are expected for this occupation between 2021 and 2031.

Employment large occupation
  This was a large occupation in the United States, employing 531,000 workers in 2021.
(The National average for all occupations is 142,207 workers)
Growth Much faster than average growth
  Continued growth of e-commerce should increase demand for package delivery services, especially for the large and regional shipping companies. More light truck drivers will be needed to fulfill the growing number of e-commerce transactions. Drone delivery services may also be used for some deliveries over the decade. However, this technology is expected to complement rather than fully replace these workers, so the downward employment effect is expected to be modest.
