Essential workers are employees who fill critical roles in maintaining a functioning society and whose work cannot be done remotely. This category, as defined by the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), covers a wide span of professions, from grocery cashiers, healthcare workers, and delivery drivers to manufacturing and sanitation employees.
What Skills Are Important for Frontline Workers?
According to the Brookings Institute, about 50 million employees are defined as frontline workers, which amounts to more than one-third of the entire U.S. workforce. Of that number, healthcare employees make up a large proportion of frontline workers, with nurses, personal care aides, and nursing assistants filling over 6 million jobs alone.
Healthcare jobs include people who work directly with patients as well as employees that handle other aspects of healthcare like billing, coding, transcription, and clerical work.
