- An estimated 21% now and 23% by the end of 2028, on METR's long-run pace at four in five, from the workforce Interface, Inc.'s own annual report describes and BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. It is an estimate with a stated method. It is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings, and it says nothing about what the company will do.
