U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in rankings and consumer advice, recently released its 2022 Best Jobs list, and exterminator placed in the top 10 in the maintenance and repair category. As you know, NPMA has been hard at work with its Workforce Development Program, helping to increase pride and professionalism in the industry and encourage potential job seekers to search for employment opportunities on its exclusive job board for NPMA member companies.
“We’re extremely pleased to see exterminator, or pest control technician, listed among the top ten best maintenance and repair jobs by U.S. News & World Report,” said Cindy Mannes, senior vice president of public affairs for the National Pest Management Association. “Two years ago, a job in pest control still carried a negative connotation and was not considered a meaningful and rewarding career path. This ranking demonstrates the industry, and our program is gaining momentum in shifting public perception and working seamlessly with our other marketing efforts at play.”
