Job Outlook
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects
that in general, public information oYcer jobs
will grow at a rate of 9 percent from 2016
through 2026, which is slightly faster than the 7
percent average for all jobs during the same
period. There's often strong competition for this
type of job, according to the BLS.
Work Environment
Government public information oYcers usually
work in oYces, but they also travel and spend
time giving speeches, attending press
conferences, and attending meetings. These
communications oYcials tend to work in the
upper levels of an organization, at all levels of
government. Divisions within government
organizations such as police and ire
departments may have their own public
information oYcers distinct from those that
serve the rest of the agency.
Work Schedule
Government public information oYcers usually
work full time during business hours but often
work long hours and are needed on some
evenings and weekends, as well.
