The employment outlook will be limited for General office support workers (NOC 14100) in the Gaspésie - Îles-de-la-Madeleine region for the 2024-2026 period.

The following factors contributed to this outlook:

• Employment decline will lead to the loss of some positions.
• Several positions will become available due to retirements.
• There are several unemployed workers with recent experience in this occupation.

This occupation is found in most industries, but a significant number of jobs are concentrated in services, including finance, insurance, real estate and leasing, retail trade and the government. However, growth may be slower at the beginning of the forecast period for the last sector due to the hiring freeze on administrative employees in public services.         

The evolution of employment is mainly influenced by technological advances and work reorganization. The implementation of office software and the integration of artificial intelligence are now helping managers and professionals do the work themselves or automate a large number of administrative tasks that they had previously assigned to people in this profession. These new opportunities have also increased employer requirements and reduced the demand for these employees in favour of more versatile occupations that require a higher level of education. 

Since it is an entry-level position, many opportunities will come from employee turnover and retirements. However, while this supports slight job growth, these factors will be insufficient to offset the effect of other factors influencing this occupation. 

Here are some key facts about General office support workers in the Gaspésie - Îles-de-la-Madeleine region:

• Approximately 180 people worked in this occupation in May 2021.
• General office support workers mainly work in the following sectors:
  • Ambulatory health care services and hospitals (NAICS 621-622): 24%
  • Retail Trade (NAICS 44-45): 18%
  • Provincial and territorial public administration (NAICS 912): 16%
