Bar coding software

Technology category · O*NET

Bar coding software is a technology category in the O*NET database. Across U.S. occupations, 2 report using software or tools in this category. The named products below are the specific examples O*NET records for those jobs.

A Hot tag marks technologies O*NET sees frequently in employer job postings; In demand marks tools an occupation specifically requires.

Example software & tools

Ranked by how many occupations list each product. Each number is an occupation count — a job is counted once per product — so the product rows overlap and do not sum to the category total.

Occupations that use Bar coding software

Industries that concentrate this

Where Bar coding software matters most across the economy. Employment reach is the share of an industry's workers in occupations that significantly use Bar coding software (O*NET importance ≥ 3 of 5, or report using the tool category). Concentration compares that reach to the national average industry, so a value above 1× means the requirement is more pervasive here than across the economy as a whole.

Nationally, about 0.1% of workers are in occupations that significantly use Bar coding software (measured across 1 industries).

Sectors with the most such workers

Sector Workers Employment reach
Transportation and Warehousing 111,920 1.5%

Industries where it is most concentrated

Industry Level Concentration Employment reach
Transportation and Warehousing Sector 15× 1.5%

Reach is a measure of how widespread a requirement is across an industry's workforce, not how intensively any individual uses it. Sector worker counts come from BLS OEWS employment; the significance threshold and tool use come from O*NET. Industries shown by concentration are filtered to a real worker base so a tiny specialty cannot top the list on rounding.
