IT (Information Technoogy) workers are a major part of the economy and allow many other workers to complete their daily tasks and routines. IT workers provide support to all major industries that use computers.

As one example, the vast majority of product design is now done on computers and then produced by machine. This rapid fabrication would not be possible without IT workers. IT enables the daily processing of every task; be it office work or manufacturing.

Careers in Information Technology involve the support and installation of communications and information infrastructure. Workers in the IT industry can include software programmers, technical support, computer help desk support, network administrator and many more.
