Employment trends expert explains the shocking new numbers regarding jobs and automation<\/p>\n

\"\"It was just announced that 375 million jobs may be automated by 2030. Those most at risk at being replaced by robots include those that work in fast-food and data collection and processing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you work in a physical job that has a predictable environment, such as a fast food worker who takes orders, you are at risk of being replaced in the future,\u201d says Rob Wilson, President of Employco USA and employment trends expert. \u201cThe same is true for people who work in low or mid-tier office jobs, such as data entry specialists, paralegals, and many more.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wilson says that we are already seeing signs of this in our fast-food restaurants and fast casual dining spots. \u201cPlaces like Panera and Wendy\u2019s are using kiosks and self-service tablets to simplify the customer experience and to make ordering even faster. The same is true for sit-down restaurants like Chili\u2019s and Olive Garden. While many people enjoy the convenience of using a computer versus waiting for a server, it\u2019s causing a great deal of concern for low-level employees and people who don\u2019t have access to continuing education and job training.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wilson also believes that minimum wage hikes could make robots the preferred option for employers. \u201cRobots don\u2019t need raises,\u201d he says. \u201cThey don\u2019t need health care or sick days. For employers who are looking down the barrel of ever-increasing business costs, robots are a cost-saving option in the long-run.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Wilson assures Americans that automation is far from a death knell for the economy. \u201cYes, automation is going to change the economic landscape, but it\u2019s not going to turn the country into a dystopia run by robots. However, workers do need to make sure that they diversify their skills and become adept in many different functions, as robots (such as the automated burger flippers in fast-food joints) have limited abilities. It\u2019s no longer enough to just show up and do your daily duties. A worker has to be engaged, present and connected to their fellow workers and their customers, as this human connection is something that a robot can never achieve.\u201d<\/p>\n
