Working with the Jobs Added report

Jobs Added provides insight into the additional jobs required in your workforce to facilitate the implementation of emerging technologies.

The introduction and maintenance of machine learning tools and other emerging technologies will require several new jobs such as data scientists, software engineers, change- and project- managers, and educational trainers.

We do not predict the emergence of jobs that do not already exist in the workforce. Instead, we show that current jobs are transformed over time as new technologies emerge which require the role to incorporate new skills and perform new tasks.
