ATLANTA, GA, January 31, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Looking for Employment in a Growing Industry, you can start their search TODAY! The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects both job and output growth in the transportation industry between 2004 and 2014: 22 percent job growth, or more than 900,000 jobs. In addition, countless industries depend on this sector to transport the materials and workers that are vital to their daily operations.

According to Milton Collier freight is an important part of the transportation sector, and the transportation sector is in itself a major component of our economy. The transportation sector moves goods and people, employs millions of workers, generates revenue, and consumes materials and services produced by other sectors of the economy. The wide range of transportation services used in the economy includes for-hire freight carriers, private transportation providers, freight forwarders, logistics providers, and firms that service and maintain vehicles.

In 2010, transportation-related goods and services accounted for more than 10 percent—over $1 trillion—of U.S. Gross Domestic Product. Only two sectors— health care, and food—contributed a larger share of GDP than transportation. The for-hire transportation service industries alone, not including the value of transportation equipment, fuels, and other material inputs, and the value of the in-house transportation services provided by nontransportation industries for their own use, contributed $306 billion to the U.S. GDP in 2010. Sixty-eight percent of this for-hire contribution came from the freight transportation sector. Accounts).

According to Milton Collier, during the past few decades, continued shifts in the U.S. economy towards more services, increased production of high-value and light-weight goods, expanded trade with Mexico and China, and the current pattern of global production and distribution systems influenced trends in U.S. freight transportation. Transportation-related occupations also make up a significant portion of the employment of nontransportation industries such as truck drivers, freight arrangement agents, and freight-moving workers in the wholesale and retail industries.

Looking ahead, the nation's freight tonnage is projected to increase nearly 70 percent by 2020. General cargo tonnage is projected to more than double, and some gateways may see a tripling in freight volumes by 2020. As the demand for freight transportation grows, so will its overall contribution to the nation's economy. And the expected growth in freight movements could result in capacity, congestion, and environmental challenges. Balancing the need for efficient and secured movement of goods with concerns for improved safety, accessibility, and mobility will likely remain a major interest of the transportation community.
