Concentration is this occupation's share of employment here divided by its share across every industry we hold — how much this industry is made of that job. Above 8× it is a defining occupation; near 1× it is a job every industry has, like a manager or an office clerk. Which licence gates OPERATING the business depends on the jurisdiction and on how the business is structured, and we do not assert it.

| licence gate — the only occupation matched is 'Paper Goods Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders' at 24.22% of this industry's employment, licensed in 1 of 56 jurisdictions. Reported, but too narrow to be read as this industry's barrier to entry. |

| occupation mix for NAICS 322212 — the labour statistics carry no rows at this level, so everything about occupations here, including the defining occupation and its licence gate, is measured at NAICS 322200, a broader grouping. Establishment counts are for 322212 itself. |
| licence coverage — the register holds 54 of 56 US licensing jurisdictions, and 2,504 of its records carry no jurisdiction at all. A count of 1 is out of 54 searched, not out of 56. The unsearched jurisdictions are not evidence of no licence. |
