Outlook
Demand for this career is expected to decline. This is due to technological advancements in copy office machines. As copy machines get faster, they produce more copies. Therefore, fewer machines and fewer operators are needed. In addition, newer copy machines tend to jam less than older machines, which also reduces the number of operators needed to tend them.
