The bottom line

Only about 10% of Packers and Packagers, Hand 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: Despite the use of segment 43 IT tools like inventory tracking software and scanners, the core value-producing work is entirely hands-on. This is evidenced by highly physical Work Activities like 'Handling and Moving Objects' (4.33) and Work Contexts such as 'Wear Common Protective or Safety Equipment' (4.38), 'Spend Time Standing' (4.27), and 'Spend Time Using Your Hands to Handle... Objects' (4.06) in non-environmentally controlled indoor settings.
