About how many people worked in New Jersey’s life-sciences cluster in 2024 according to state labor research?
Note
A 2026 state labor report estimated approximately 85,000 New Jersey life-sciences workers in 2024.
The 85,000 figure comes from a New Jersey labor-sector study for 2024. A cluster employment count depends on which industries are included, so it should not be equated with all health-care jobs. Compare this cluster figure only with reports using compatible industry definitions.
