Technology impacts on the australian workforce

In March 2020, ACS and Faethm launched the Technology Impacts on the Australian Workforce report which highlights the significant and far-reaching impact of emerging technologies on the Australian workforce in the next fifteen years and how the growth in technological capabilities is already transforming supply chains, reshaping the workforce and redefining jobs. Prepared by artificial-intelligence (AI) analytics platform, the report finds that 2.7 million Australian jobs are at risk from automation over the next fifteen years, but more than twice as many jobs can be created if Australia decides to invest in the skills development of its workforce.
