Staffing Patterns are a list of the occupations employed within a particular industry, or
a list of the industries that employ a particular occupation. Job seekers or
training providers may use these lists to contact appropriate employers for job openings. And
employers or economic developers may use these lists to determine the kinds of jobs they need in
a particular company or business.

Search tips:
- Use the plural form of the occupation. For example, "teachers" instead of "teacher" or "secretaries" instead of "secretary".
- In order to see a more complete list of possible occupations or
industries, use a keyword that is less specific to search. For example, if you want
"food workers", then search for "food". Or use part of a word. If you want the industry "Veterinary Services" or the
occupation "Veterinarians," then search for "vet."
- If you can't find what you want, try looking through the complete lists of available
Occupations
or
Industries.
About the data: These data come from the Industry and Occupation Employment Projections
program of the Employment Development Department. See the
Occupational Projections - Introduction and Methods
and the
Industry Projections - Introduction and Methods
for more information. Some occupation/industry combinations may not be included to protect employer confidentiality or because the base survey resulted in a large standard error.
The Industry and Occupation Staffing Patterns are presented to provide
users with a general idea of
the industry or occupation distribution. The employment counts
shown are for the State of California. Although there will be
some regional differences depending upon the
specific businesses present,
the distribution of occupations within an industry, or industries
within an occupation, should be similar for other levels
of geography. For example, "Carpenters" will be one of the
largest occupations in "Residential Building Construction" in any
geographic area.
