Manufacturing jobs are those that create new products directly from either raw materials or components. These jobs are found in a factory, plant, or mill. They can also exist in a home, as long as products, not services, are created. For example, bakeries, candy stores, and custom tailors are considered manufacturing because they create products out of components. On the other hand, book publishing, logging, and mining are not considered manufacturing because they don’t change the good into a new product. Construction is in its own category and is not considered manufacturing. New home builders are construction companies that build single-family homes. New home construction and the commercial real estate construction industry are significant components of gross domestic product.
