What Are the Jobs of the Future?
The rise of robot automation in the automobile manufacturing industry struck fear into many a laborer's heart, as it was equated with human job and career loss. A Ball State University 2015 study found 88 percent of U.S. job loss was due to robots or homegrown factors to reduce factories' need for human labor. The International Federation of Robotics, however reported that between 2010 and 2015, the U.S. automotive sector installed 135,000 robots, but hired 230,000 human employees. So while technology advances, will it replace us in our current jobs, or create new ones for us? Is Data Scientist the most promising job of the future, or is that all techno-hype? Are our office environments going to be replaced by the off-site work-at-home or freelance model? This book compiles essays and works from eyewitness accounts, governmental views, scientific analysis, and newspapers to give your reader the forecast of jobs to come. Salient facts are pulled out from the text and repeated, making it easy for students to compile details for research and report writing.
