Question:
Assume that you work for a company that designs and manufactures uniforms and protective equipment. Your company would like to expand its offerings and is considering manufacturing firefighter uniforms. As part of the research necessary to make this decision, your supervisor asked you to gather information about the market for these uniforms. How big is it? Is it growing or shrinking? In your research, you found this statement on the Education-Portal.com website: “According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, www.bls.gov, the occupation of firefighter is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations.” However, you also found several newspaper sources on the web that cite shrinking budgets and personnel cutbacks in fire departments. How would you present this conflicting information in your report? Would you need to do any additional research on the topic before composing? If so, what questions would you research?
