Pharmacist Employment
Pharmacists held about 243,000 jobs in 2006. About 62 percent worked in
community pharmacies that were either independently owned or part of a
drugstore chain, grocery store, department store, or mass merchandiser. Most
community pharmacists were salaried employees, but some were self-employed
owners. About 23 percent of pharmacists worked in hospitals. A small
proportion worked in mail-order and Internet pharmacies, pharmaceutical
wholesalers, offices of physicians, and the Federal Government.
