Purpose of InterLink’s Labor Market Survey

The History of InterLink’s Annual Labor Market Survey

InterLink has a single mandate, which is to provide employer driven and well prepared labor market information to secondary and post-secondary education decision makers to determine Career and Technical Programs and provide student counseling on career opportunities, resulting in students being prepared for future careers that result in a quality regional workforce.

InterLink’s History: In 1987 the Texas Legislature through HB72, formed an initiative called Quality Work Force Planning (QWFP) under the guidance of a tri-agency partnership including the Texas Education Agency, Higher Education Coordinating Board and what was at the time named the Texas Employment Commission, (now Texas Workforce Commission.) Their purpose was to work with regional employers to identify their labor needs for high skill/high demand occupations and implement secondary and post-secondary education programs to meet that need. At the same time, a group of North Central Texas business and education visionaries believing that students should be prepared for evolving high skill careers, petitioned and were allowed by the state to become one of nine QWFP Pilot Programs, which ultimately became 24 across the state, who were allowed to form according to the perceived needs of the region’s educators and employers.

The North Central Texas visionaries created North Central Texas InterLink, Inc. as a non-profit, 501c 3 organization to provide regional labor market information to secondary and post-secondary education districts for Career and Technical Education (CTE) program planning and student career and college counseling.

In 1989, InterLink became an affiliate of the North Texas Commission whose members advocate for InterLink’s mission by providing information on their workforce needs.

By 1991, InterLink was the only QWFP Organization remaining, because North Central Texas Career and Technical Educators pledged to support the organization to continue providing their regional employer driven labor market information.

InterLink’s success is attributed to the number of educators and employers who contribute by: serving on the 70-member board of directors and direct InterLink and task forces; offer participation with business webinars and visits to their facilities to understand the use of current and future technology and skill needs, and; to the business community which responds to the annual survey. We couldn’t provide this service to the regional educators without them.

About the Survey:

The 31st Annual InterLink Regional Employer Survey was conducted online through a survey web hosting site and when requested, through direct email with a word document survey that could be returned directly to InterLink.

Those surveyed are public and private employers throughout InterLink’s sixteen county North

Central Texas service region which includes a number of companies who have participated in the survey since its inception and are considered benchmarks for the survey. We appreciate the organizations that help distribute the InterLink Survey throughout the region including, professional and economic development organizations, chambers of commerce and educators who distribute it to their advisors. Counties and municipal governments, and

1

education secondary and post-secondary institutions also receive the survey.

The survey instrument is designed so that the questions are impartial. Until 2005, the survey asked respondents to forecast their employment needs ten years into the future, while today businesses are challenged to respond to the request for a five-year forecast.

The occupation demand questions are proven to be effective for our needs and embraced by the respondents. Ten questions were designed specifically to determine the high skill and high wage occupations that will be in demand in North Central Texas.

The InterLink Board of Directors will upon occasion ask questions of interest to the educators or business task force members.

In the coming 12 years, artificial intelligence and robotics will impact between 75 and 375 million global jobs both created and lost. In the United States the numbers range between 16 and 54 million. (ref. McKinsey Global Institute December 2017) A recent Gartner survey showed that 59% of organizations are still gathering information to build an AI strategy, while 40% are piloting or adopting AI technologies.

InterLink’s Futures Task Force added a second part to the survey to determine if the automated or autonomous workplace is beginning to emerge. Now that a benchmark has been established from which to work, these questions will be revised in future surveys to identify timing of the potential impact and how it might vary by job category, regulatory, economic, technology, and societal factors.

The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has established new criteria, beginning in 2020, for

the development of Career and Technical Program of Studies which meet the Federal Guidelines of US Department of Education and Texas Legislation to prepare students for successful futures.

TEA Requirements: 1. All occupations should be considered2. Occupations will be reviewed for minimum

state growth rate of 17%3. Occupations will be reviewed for minimum

median salary of $35,3394. Occupations with “all other” in their title will be

removed5. Occupations with competitive education

requirement of higher than a bachelor’sdegree, no formal education, or high school willbe removed

6. Occupations with “supervisor” or “manager” intheir title will be removed

7. Occupations within their respective careerclusters were reviewed and those very close injob duties will be consolidated

The TEA has set criteria of a median state wage of $35,339, to be considered for a program of study. Enclosed in this report are Median Annual Wages, which may be of interest to employers.

After determining employer demand, and going through the process as shown in the methodology section of this report, where possible, InterLink applied the new TEA criteria to prepare the Demand Occupations List for North Central Texas. Exceptions include occupations such as those in aviation which are considered to be in high demand by North Central Texas Employers that may not meet all of the TEA criteria. The Texas Education Agency made assurances that appropriate labor market information reflecting regional demand will be considered for Career and Technical Education Programs.

Forecasting Demand Occupations

The Methodology section of this report describes the process InterLink uses in identifying Demand Occupations which is the standard process set by the Texas Workforce Commission.

The intuitive sense of the occupations on this list are supported when it is possible to triangulate from a number of independent sources that all point to the same conclusion. InterLink’s forecast is supplemented with regional wisdom acquired through the annual labor market survey and InterLink’s task forces.

Although not all of the occupations identified in the survey meet the criteria for inclusion on the demand occupation list, each occupation that was reported appears in this document and is considered to be important for employment potential. Through this report, the information will be shared with all educators who may request further labor market information to justify a CTE Program.

Conversely, it is not unusual for occupations to appear on InterLink’s annual targeted lists for several years due to continuous regional future demand.

Occupations included on the InterLink Demand Occupations List were carefully chosen by InterLink. The regional wisdom provided by employers who responded to the InterLink Survey supplements regional, state, and federal labor market data, and is developed into a justifiable plan. InterLink gauges the potential for occupations to remain viable for future employment by measuring them against factors which are considered to be primary causes for changes in the workforce. The most measurable factors include: growing use of computers and other automation and technological changes; changes in business practices; demographic trends; changes in the way medical care is provided; trends in law, law enforcement, and

government regulations and; offshoring and outsourcing of jobs and people.

The InterLink Demand and Emerging and Evolving Occupations are arranged by industry clusters identified by the State’s Career Cluster Initiative which identifies sixteen broad clusters within which most occupations fit. These clusters are: 1) Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources, 2) Architecture & Construction, 3) Arts, A/V Technology & Communications, 4) Business, Management & Administration, 5) Education & Training, 6) Finance, 7) Government & Public Administration, 8) Health Science, 9) Hospitality & Tourism, 10) Human Services, 11) Information Technology, 12) Law, Public Safety, Corrections & Security, 13) Manufacturing, 14) Marketing, Sales & Service, 15) Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics, and 16) Transportation, Distribution & Logistics.

InterLink continues to focus on emerging and evolving industries and occupations and the future job opportunities they might provide.

InterLink’s survey and task forces identify emerging occupations that are expected to be in demand in the future. Also, the Bureau of Labor Statistics O*NET department identifies emerging occupations, assigning them identification codes as they become mainstream.

Through InterLink’s Industry Trends Task Force, practitioners and thought leaders from specific industries from the Industry Clusters, attend full day, professionally facilitated, workshops to forecast trends and skill and knowledge needs. This helps InterLink forecast current and future workforce needs by combining the information with the InterLink Labor Market Survey to include in the InterLink Demand Occupations List for consideration of future skill development and employment opportunities. These sessions are ongoing and reports from previous sessions are available on InterLink’s website: www.interlink-ntx.org.

Findings of the 2018 Targeted Occupations Survey

Originally, InterLink directly distributed 1200 surveys to employers in the 16-county region and received an 84% response rate of 1020. However, there were two industries that did not have satisfactory response, therefore a targeted distribution of another 185 surveys to those industries brought the InterLink distribution to 1385 with a response of 1217, an 88% response rate.

The employers who participated with the survey are greatly appreciated. If you are a survey respondent and the numbers of responses in this report appear fewer than your input indicated, it is likely that another source from your company or organization responded and upon validation with the sources, we were careful not to duplicate the numbers.

It should be noted that responses to this survey may not apply to other areas of the state or nation.

Select findings of the survey:

• Of the 966 Standard Occupation Codes (SOC)InterLink’s survey respondents identifiedoccupations in which InterLink grouped into127 Occupational Titles.

Skills can be taught but integrity, respect and perseverance are ingrained.

The half -life of an engineer is about 5 years

We are only at the beginning of the evolution of artificial intelligence, but it is coming and will be a driver in the future

With big data driving insights, many companies are seeking analysts with mathematical and data driven backgrounds to determine how to best use data to predict trends.

Part 2 - Future Jobs Impact due to Technology Advancements In the coming 12 years, artificial intelligence and robotics will impact between 75 and 375 million global

jobs both created and lost. In the United States the numbers range between 16 and 54 million. (ref. McKinsey Global Institute December 2017) A recent Gartner survey showed that 59% of organizations are still gathering information to build an AI strategy, while 40% are piloting or adopting AI technologies. The timing of the impact will vary by job category, regulatory, economic, technology, and societal factors. It is

imperative that both educators and business get ahead of the curve. The survey will be a readout of current work and a proactive step to address matching training to your workforce needs.

Definitions: Our definition of automation includes robotics and artificial intelligence Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Cognitive computing - Computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages. For the purpose of this survey, it will also include: Autonomous cars, trucks and aerial vehicles - Humans removed from direct control of vehicle Chatbots (automated assistants) - AI systems designed to simulate conversation with human users, particularly those integrated into messaging apps and call centers. Robotics - Robots physically similar to human beings (or parts of a human, e.g. arm) that integrate variety of systems and robotics technologies and are capable of performing variety of human tasks. Robotic Process Automation - Class of software “robots” that replicates the actions of a human being interacting with the user interfaces of other software systems. Enables the automation of many “back office” (e.g., finance, human resources) workflows without requiring expensive IT integration. For example, many workflows simply require data to be transferred from one system to another.

Maintenance Mechanic I/II growth 5

Medical care will improve because Robotics use is now, and will continue to become more common in the future. They will be used in medical procedures and physical assistance. But don't think it means a huge reduction in health care workers, they will continue to be in high demand and robots will free them to provide better patient care. There will always be people behind the machines.

Telemedicine will increase

The need for skilled workers will have a positive and negative influence on growth or decline of technology usage. In some cases, development of technologies is slowed because there are not enough skilled STEM workers to fill the positions. In other cases, because there are not enough workers it will drive the use of robots, AI, and other technologies that can replace the shortage of workers.

Responses to Question 24 ~ Survey Improvement Alphabetical

Question 9: Is there any way that this survey could be improved?

Responses to Question 24 ~ Survey Improvement We need a renewed emphasis on the building trades.

This is different than former surveys, I like that you are staying on top of the evolving labor market.

Please continue to send findings and results.

Particularly in medical surgeries robotics are being used. The servicing of these robots will always require technicians.

Our scope is medical information management. AI will play a part in decision support systems and our solutions, but will not impact workforce in North Texas.

NA - 489

Many of those toward the end do not apply, so I left blank. Would be nice instead to have a 'does not apply' button

I'm excited to get the results.

I know what you are after, but our company is very small and most of the work performed in our construction business is labor intensive. I don't see our forces being replaced by robotics. Other than our surveying equipment, robotics doesn't come into play in our business.

Good questions relating to growth in the right direction. jobs with technology components must be backed with local education and an acceptance culture. Without both, we will be relegated to minimum wage, flat pay employment.

As in the past, this is a well written survey to capture the information you need. I am interested in the results of Part 2 of the survey - it is the future.

Lines going across the pages to ensure numbers are aligned to skills choice

Looking forward to the report

No, because the survey provides opportunities for us to submit additional data for consideration.

No, survey is comprehensive

Not that I can see

Perhaps add wages

Perhaps asking about the range of starting pay for entry level positions would be helpful as tools are built to help students look at career opportunities.

2017 Annual Median Wages by Region and State

Mean Wage is the default wage estimate. Not to be confused with median wage, this number represents the average pay earned by all

workers in the selected location occupation. It is calculated by summing the adjusted wages for all workers and dividing by the number of

workers. It is a very general measure of what all workers earn.

Methodology for Targeting Occupations

InterLink uses the following methods to determine the occupations that will be placed on the final occupation list. The annual survey is most important in that it provides employer driven information about current and future occupation needs for North Central Texas employment which offer future opportunities for students. Labor Markets A labor market can be categorized into different components. The industrial labor market generally refers to job opportunities in a specific industry such as health services, business services, building construction, financial services, etc. A labor market can also be defined occupationally. This classifies job opportunities in which one practices a unique set of skills. How Job Openings Occur Job openings are created in two ways. They are created through economic growth and through labor turnover. Economic growth can occur for many reasons, such as technology or consumer preferences creating new products or services, companies moving into an area, new government regulations creating a need for more services, or changing demographics creating a greater demand for the manufacture of specific products. Most job openings, however, are created through labor turnover. As people change jobs, retire, die, etc., they create job openings. If a person is promoted, someone is usually hired to fill the position they left. The job openings created through turnover are not new jobs but jobs created through growth. Planning for the Future The number and type of jobs for North Central Texans in the future will depend on the interaction of many demographic, economic, social, and technological phenomena. The key to good career planning is the understanding of these phenomena and labor market trends. Growth trends for the

implementation of career and technological training classes and for career planning should be considered. Limitations of Labor Market Information Knowing where growth will occur is difficult, as is any prediction of the future. Occupational trend analysis is made more difficult by the nature of occupational and labor market information. Statistical data, valuable for the insights it provides on change and trends in the labor market, is collected sometime after the phenomena occur. Occupational projections, based on past data, must be pieced together from knowledge of current events, some intuitive common sense, and many assumptions. If some of the assumptions prove to be incorrect, the projections become invalid. Following local, national, and international trends, and including “regional wisdom” supplied by employers through InterLink’s Labor Market Survey is essential to making valid assumptions and therefore, fruitful policy. Employment Projections To complete the picture for labor market information for the North Central Texas Region, InterLink needs to have information about where the economy is going. It is important to know what jobs will be available in the coming months and years, and which jobs will be phased out. Without anticipating where the local area is going, potentially bad decisions can be made. InterLink engages regional employers through the annual labor market survey and also through the InterLink Future Industry Trends Task Force and the InterLink Futures Task Force. These industries thought leaders and practitioners provide information about trends in their specific industries. Labor Market Forecasting Process InterLink begins each forecast by using the resources provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics which produces long term industry and occupation employment projections for the United States. The

65

projections are conducted for a ten-year period with the base year always being an even year.

Like the Bureau of Labor Statistics, The Texas Workforce Commission Labor Market Information Department produces long-term industry and occupation employment projections for Texas and its 28 Workforce Development Areas (WDA’s) every two years. The projections are done for a ten-year period with the base year always being an even year. The projection process depends on two main ingredients: industry employment and occupation employment within each industry (generally referred to as industry staffing patterns). Staffing patterns are defined as the mix of jobs found in particular industries.

Because InterLink is preparing a report for the 16 county North Central Texas Region, one method of validating the labor market report is to prepare a single labor market report from the three-workforce development area labor markets in the region, and compare the results of InterLink’s forecast to the results. InterLink therefore conducts four labor market studies before developing the regional labor market study. The three regional workforce development boards are: Dallas County Workforce Solutions, Tarrant County Workforce Solutions and North Central Workforce Solutions representing fourteen counties. InterLink employs EMSI to provide the sixteen county report and because employers do not want to project their hiring needs beyond five years, we use a five-year forecast and overlay that on the Bureau of Labor Market and Texas Workforce Commission forecasts.

The initial projections are reviewed and adjusted using knowledge of the industrial and local conditions not considered in the historical data as described under local wisdom . Each industry has a unique occupational structure. The growth and decline of individual industries affect the growth and decline of occupations needed to staff these industries. The Texas Workforce Commission automated system is used to produce occupation employment projections and annual average job openings. The industry/occupation (I/O) matrix represents the occupational staffing patterns of each 3-digit industry by Standard Industrial

Classification (SIC). The matrix indicates the industries where people work and the jobs they hold. When developing projections, changes in industry staffing patterns brought about by new technology and changing business practices are also considered.

Projected occupational employment can be analyzed from two perspectives: percent change and numerical change, because one can be large and the other small, depending on the size of employment in the base year. Annual job openings for the ten-year period are produced which include openings due to growth in the industry and openings due to replacement needs of existing job.

Assumptions and Limitations The projections reflect studies of past and present industrial trends. They illustrate what is likely to happen, barring major changes from past trends. These projections are based on the same major economic assumptions the BLS uses to develop national projections. These assumptions are: ▪ No major events such as widespread or long-

lasting energy shortages, oil embargoes, otherprice shocks, or major wars will significantly alterthe economy’s industrial structure or economicgrowth rates.

▪ The national economic institutional frameworkwill not change radically.

▪ Current social, technological, and scientific trendswill continue, including the value placed on work,education, income, and leisure.

It is unlikely that these projections will precisely predict actual employment developments, because the economy is sensitive to unforeseen local, state, national, and international trends and policies. However, the basic trends should prove accurate and aid in successful decision-making.

In addition to assumptions concerning long-range economic conditions, assumptions are also made regarding short-term occurrences. The projection process does not allow for cyclical or seasonal changes, or other events such as large plant openings or closings. Exceptions include cases in which manual adjustments are made before publication to accommodate known pending changes.

Rigorous analysis of state-supplied data may include but is not limited to the following:

Shift-Share Analysis What resources do various communities or neighborhoods have that are likely to give them comparative economic advantages over others in competing for a niche in the local labor market? To what extent are local firms ahead of or behind global, national, or statewide trends in their respective industries? To what extent are they caught up in or insulated from broader trends? To what extent do local businesses shape broader trends and lead their respective industries? What portion of aggregate trend data—e.g., the emergence of a new and unprecedented occupational cluster, is the result of local business activity? At what point, for example, will localized employment demand for an emerging occupation reach critical mass necessitating a commitment of resources to develop and deliver a responsive curriculum?

Input-Output Analysis Given broad statewide trends and local comparative advantages, how are the effects of employment growth or decline in one industry likely to ripple through other sectors of the local economy? How will a new business or the expansion of an existing firm involving X employees and $Y payroll impact the local tax base? Is the new/expanded business likely to do its banking, finance, accounting, and legal work, etc. locally? Can it depend on distant vendors or will it spawn spin-offs locally to provide supplies, parts, and business services? Will its payroll be large enough and will its workers have sufficient spendable income to support new eating and drinking establishments or additional recreation and entertainment facilities, increase retail sales, and drive up demand for new construction and more personal services? Objective regional data collection also is a necessary component of local wisdom. The key word is “objective,” as opposed to “inspired” research. The point is to not start with a foregone conclusion then search selectively for any shred of supporting evidence. Known gaps in state-provided data should be filled not by asking self-interested stakeholders for their opinions but rather by seeking

valid, reliable, and verifiable evidence from neutral parties.

The process of acquiring local wisdom is subject to constant review and continuous improvement. Blending available labor market information with the insight of regional wisdom can go a long way in the design and implementation of a successful workforce development program.

Job Postings A relatively new addition to Labor Market Forecasting is the review of job postings identifying the need for particular occupations in a particular area. This can be an additional tool to use, however, as indicated in an April 17, 2015 article in Harvard Business Review on Job Postings, Job Postings don’t always equal jobs: “Economists sometimes use online job postings to gauge employment demand. But that data turns out to be an unreliable proxy. Why? For one thing, tech and other white-collar workers are more likely than others to search for jobs online—after all, that’s where many of them work—and so employers are more likely to post listings for those positions, often advertising the same job multiple times. Also, companies tend to flood job boards when the listing firms are offering discounts, regardless of their need for workers.”

One job posting could be for several jobs or many different posting could be for one job and if a job posting is removed, it may have not had a successful hire. Job postings can however, give insight into the skills and credentials that employers are seeking, and the number of job postings in a certain area can be an indicator of where labor market opportunities exist.

InterLink’s Regional or Local Wisdom from the Annual Labor Market Survey Used with the other tools for Labor Market Forecasting, InterLink’s Annual Labor Market Survey continues to be the best indicator of the North Central Texas Region labor market. Conducted online at a survey web hosting site, local opinion data comes from a control group of businesses who have participated in the survey annually as well as a genuinely random sample of businesses representing

67

industries distributed by area chambers of commerce and business associations. The survey instrument initially developed for InterLink by GTE (now Verizon) so that the questions are truly impartial.

InterLink’s Industry Trends Task Force (Reports at: www.interlink-ntx.org) InterLink’s Industry Trends Task Force conducts sessions with industry thought leaders and futurists to determine trends that may affect the industries in the future. These sessions are captured in reports that provide additional resources for labor market forecasting.

InterLink’s Future Task Force: In 2017 InterLink’s business board members began to discuss the rapidly approaching workforce where artificial intelligence and technologies such as robotics are influencing the automated workforce. Thee though leaders formed the InterLink Futurist Task Force to be proactive going forth. Several questions were added to this year’s survey to begin measuring the use of these technologies.

InterLink’s Preliminary Demand Occupations List The Texas Workforce Commission has 28 approved Local Workforce Development Boards (LWDB) and permits each workforce board to publish its own demand occupations list based on local needs. North Central Texas has three Workforce Development Boards which include: Dallas Workforce Solutions, Tarrant Workforce Solutions and North Central Texas Workforce Solutions consisting of 14 counties, for a total of 16 counties. InterLink uses these lists as a benchmark with an overlay of the InterLink Survey Responses to develop a preliminary Demand Occupations List. The following measurements are used to complete the targeted list.

The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has established new criteria, beginning in 2020, for the development of Career and Technical Program of Studies. Where possible, InterLink used these criteria to prepare the Demand Occupations List for North Central Texas.

Exceptions include occupations considered to be in high demand by North Central Texas Employers that

may not meet all of the above criteria. The Texas Education Agency made assurances that appropriate labor market information reflecting the demand will be considered.

The requirements by TEA include: 1. All occupations should be considered2. Occupations will be reviewed for minimum state

growth rate of 17%3. Occupations will be reviewed for minimum median

salary of $35,3394. Occupations with “all other” in their title will be

removed5. Occupations with competitive education

requirement of higher than a bachelor’s degree,no formal education, or high school will beremoved

6. Occupations with “supervisor” or “manager” intheir title will be removed

7. Occupations within their respective career clusterswere reviewed and those very close in job dutieswere consolidated

Factors of Change To complete the final occupations chosen, InterLink also measures the potential for an occupation to remain viable for future employment by measuring them against factors which are considered to be primary causes for changes in the workforce. The most measurable factors include: Growing use of computers and other automation and technological changes; Changes in business practices; Demographic Trends; Changes in the way medical care is provided; Trends in law, law enforcement, and government regulation, and; Offshoring/Outsourcing of jobs and people.

Emerging or Evolving Occupations InterLink uses several sources for occupations that may evolve (current occupations which may change due to technology or other influences) or emerge (new occupations that appear in the labor market.) InterLink’s Future Industry Trends Task Force provides insight into the future. The Texas Workforce Commission also provides information through the Labor Market Career Information (LMCI) Department, the Department of Labor and O*NET identifies emerging and evolving occupations.

68

InterLink also uses the occupations that have been identified when surveying North Central Texas employers for regional wisdom into the emerging workforce. The occupations are validated through InterLink’s annual labor market survey to determine how quickly they are evolving. Occupations issued a Standard Occupation Code (SOC) or O*Net Code may be placed on InterLink’s Demand Occupations List or the Emerging or Evolving List to forecast future occupations or the skills, knowledge and ability that may transition into occupation opportunities.

Macro Industry Trends InterLink’s Business Partners assist in determining Macro Industry Trends that may impact the workforce of the future. Currently InterLink is monitoring fourteen trends that we expect to make game changing changes in the way we work and live. Alphabetically, they are:

1. 3 and 4 D Printing2. Artificial Intelligence/Algorithms3. Augmented Reality4. Autonomous Vehicles (AVs)5. Biotechnology6. Blockchain and Crypto Currency

7. Deep Learning8. Drones/UAVs9. Natural Resources – Food and Energy10. Regenerative Medicine/Genetics;11. Risk and Security Management12. Robotics13. Sensors/Smart Everything14. The Internet of Things

Demand Occupations Resources for Educators Upon final determination of the InterLink Demand Occupations the results are developed into a Demand Occupations list and brochure. Finally, a resource guide is produced in digital format, with profiles of each occupation as well as an overview of the national, state and regional labor markets. These and other resources help educators understand the regional labor market so that their school districts may make informed decisions about programs that can be implemented or enhanced and counselors can give advice which prepares students for a dynamic workforce. This results in employers having skilled and knowledgeable employees to support an enviable quality of life in the North Central Texas Region.
