Will the number of whitecollar workers who are members of a labor union in the United States double in five years ?
"Whitecollar" here means occupations like lawyers and software engineers.
Resolves based on data from https://data.bls.gov
The report for 2022 is here
I think* the relevant rows in the report are the ones under "Professional and related occupations." which include:
Computer and mathematical occupations.
Architecture and engineering occupations
Life, physical, and social science occupations
Community and social service occupations
Legal occupations
Education, training, and library occupations
Arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations
Healthcare practitioners and technical occupations
In total these have increased from 5.22M in 2021 to 5.33M in 2022.
Will the 2027 report show at least 6M ? If there's no report for 2027 alternative sources will be considered.
* please correct me if I'm wrong here, happy to change the datasource in the next few days if there's something that's obviously better.
