In <br />cooperation with the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. <br />In Indian River County, the dominance of service employment is due to consumer demand. As <br />would be expected, NAICS service sectors associated with tourism make up a large share of Indian <br />River County service employment. <br />As shown in Table 5.10, sixteen of the twenty-two major employers in Indian River are in the <br />service industry. Only two of those employers, Piper Aircraft and Novurania of America, are <br />manufacturers. Four of the employers listed in the top twenty-two have major fluctuations in <br />employment depending on the time of year. While Health Care and Social Assistance employers <br />represented four of the top twenty-two major employers in Indian River County, public <br />administration employers represented three of the top twenty-two major employers in the county. <br />Community Development Department Indian River County 16 <br />
