It is both a growing market and profession.

See this item, Incident and Emergency Management Market Worth 122.94 Billion USD by 2023.By this account, we are in a growth industry — unfortunately!

It is the technological aspect that is fueling the economic growth, their projection is, "Web-Based Emergency Management, Mass Notification, Surveillance System, Safety Management), Solution, Service, Simulation, Communication Tool and Device, Industry Vertical, and Region ..."

Climate change will be a major component, and I can see how simulation is getting bigger and bigger for our industry. The market will continue to respond as more mega disasters become frequent and governments and business invest more in their respective programs. 

More people will be needed to meet the demands of business and industry.
