The bottom line

Only about 10% of Power and Communication Line and Related Structures Construction is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: With no known digital values for the child occupations, this score relies on the NAICS industry lens and description. The industry's primary activities—such as stringing power lines, erecting cellular towers, and laying underground cable—represent heavy physical construction. The listed occupations, including structural iron workers, pipelayers, and line installers, reinforce that the value-producing work is overwhelmingly manual and on-site.
