THE IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES

ON EMPLOYMENT RATE

Factory managers replace employees with robots.

That robots, automation, and software can replace people which are aimed at a specific type of work.

Scientists believe that rapid technological change has been destroying jobs faster than it is creating them.

They believe that technology boosts productivity makes societies wealthier, but they think that it can also have a dark side: technological progress is eliminating the need for many types of jobs and leaving the typical worker worse off than before.

E-learning is prefered more and more at school, paper books are becoming old-fashioned.

Social network are used for communication of students and teacher, for sharing common knowledge and information.

More positive impactsUsing technology in the workplace and

educating employees on technology can have positive impacts on the jobs.

Technology can help move a company forward.

Technology on the job can help an organization run smoothly and efficiently.

To benefit the most from technology in the workplace, employees must understand the value of a product and become proficient.

More negative impact Technology training can also have a negative

impact on employees.

Some employees are reluctant to change. In addition, some employees are

technologically challenged, wherein it‘s difficult for them to grasp new programs and other forms of technology. Even when you provide adequate training, some employees might prefer old-fashioned methods of communication, such as telephones, notes and a written day planner.

Technology and wages

Since the new technology increases the productivity of the high-skilled workers, the high-tech firms can increase the wages of these workers paid by firms that did not implement the new technology, at least in the short run.

Jobs using new technologies will become more valuable because of new technology.

„Inovation has never been faster, technology is advancing fast and our skills and organizations aren‘t keeping up.“
