The forecast for the number of employees in the UK's coke and refined petroleum products sector shows a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. The annual decrease is consistent, reflecting a downward trend. In 2024, the employee count is expected to be 8.33 thousand, dropping to 7.98 thousand by 2028. This indicates a persistent reduction in employment, likely due to automation, shifts in energy demands, or industry restructuring.
Future trends to watch for include the potential impact of environmental regulations and the global shift toward renewable energy sources, which may accelerate industry transformation and further influence employment numbers.
