The Impact of Technology on Labor Markets

This is a US monthly labor review that talks about industrial robots, its independence from human operators and its implications on today's labor markets. The analysis also considered gender, industry, occupation, education, and wage percentiles. Few of the findings were that there were large decreases within blue-collar jobs that have routine manual operation; and the negative impacts slightly diminish as a worker’s education level increases.
