The Impact of Great Women - Morteza Kohansal - Bog

The age of automation , and on the near horizon, artificial intelligence (AI)technologies offer new job opportunities and avenues for economic advancement, but women face new challenges overlaid on long-established ones. Between 40 million and 160million women globally may need to transition between occupations by 2030, often into higher-skilled roles. To weather this disruption, women (and men) need to be skilled, mobile,and tech-savvy, but women face pervasive barriers on each, and will need targeted support to move forward in the world of work. The future of women at work: Transitions in the age of automation, finds that if women make these transitions, they could be on the path to more productive, better-paid work. If they cannot, they could face a growing wage gap or be left further behind when progress toward gender parity in work is already slow .This new research explores potential patterns in ¿jobs lost¿ (jobs displaced by automation),¿jobs gained¿ (job creation driven by economic growth, investment, demographic changes,and technological innovation), and ¿jobs changed¿ (jobs whose activities and skill requirements change from partial automation) for women by exploring.
