Applied Chemical Technologists and Technicians (2211)
Labour Market Summary
Employment Trends/Outlook
According to Ontario Job Futures, growth in employment in these occupations will be slow in Ontario over the next several years.

The 1991 Census shows a total labour force, employed and unemployed, of 785 applied chemical technologists and technicians in the Ottawa area.

In the Ottawa area, applied chemical technologists and technicians work primarily for the federal government and its agency the National Research Council, and in the manufacture and testing of computer components. They are also be employed in research
by the universities. We also found applied chemical technologists whose primary task was to service chemical products and processes.

Advertised demand is low, but stable. Employers of people in these occupations, reported no difficulty in finding candidates when they have vacancies.
