The 2025 Pharmacy Technician Workforce Report Pharmacy technicians open up about pay, pressure, and the path forward.
Written by Mike Johnston, CPhT-Adv, BCSCPT, BCNCPT
“Seventy-three percent of pharmacy technicians believe they’re underpaid—and most feel over- looked.” That single data point, drawn from one of the most comprehensive national surveys of pharmacy technicians ever conducted, sets the tone for what you’re about to read. Nearly 1,000 certified and non-certified pharmacy technicians across the United States contributed to this study, sharing unfiltered feedback on their wages, benefits, working conditions, and sense of professional value. For too long, pharmacy technicians have operated as the invisible engine of the pharmacy. Their roles are essential, their responsibilities immense, and yet their professional narratives have re- mained largely underreported—until now. This report is not just a collection of statistics. It is a mirror held up to the profession, reflecting its hard truths and untapped potential.
