Prospects over the next 3 years

The employment outlook will be very good for Administrative officers (NOC 13100) in Quebec for the 2023-2025 period.

The following factors contributed to this outlook:

• Employment growth will lead to several new positions.
• Several positions will become available due to retirements.
• There are a moderate number of unemployed workers with recent experience in this occupation.

This occupation is found in most industry sectors, but a significant portion of employment is concentrated in healthcare, social assistance and educational services. The expected growth in these sectors should therefore benefit workers.

The administrative support community is still experiencing a labour shortage. Employee turnover is high, and succession is not enough to meet the labour market demand.

The Government of Quebec has also set up an accelerated training program to be used, among other things, for hiring clinical support staff who assist nurses with administrative duties.

The health crisis has forced companies to make a rapid transition towards digitalizing their business and implementing telework. This trend is set to continue. This occupational group can expect a growing number of organizations to continue to support flexible working arrangements.
