Outlook
Demand is expected to grow about as fast as average for elevator and escalator installers and repairers. This is a very small career and very few job openings will occur. Demand may increase as existing equipment needs repair and new buildings need elevators and escalators.
Elevator and escalator installers and repairers generally are not affected by the state of the economy. This is because elevators and escalators must always be kept in good working condition.
Some job openings will occur as current workers leave this career. Job prospects are good for entry-level workers who have formal training or a post-secondary degree in electronics.
