Methods

The report explores the effects of digital technologies on labor markets since the 1980s, focusing on the shift towards digitalisation, deindustrialisation, and the implications for future work. It discusses the transformation of the workforce, the changing nature of jobs, and the policy responses required to ensure inclusive growth. While technology has altered job composition and skill demands, leading to job polarisation and a decline in the labour share of income, the impact on overall job numbers is uncertain. The report also highlights the potential for automation to affect many sectors previously considered immune to technological disruption.
