Automation is expanding and displacing many jobs currently performed by humans. New technologies like robotics, artificial intelligence, the internet of things, and 5G telecommunications are allowing machines to take over tasks in various industries like manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, and more. This is resulting in many existing jobs disappearing but also creating new jobs in areas like app development, drone operation, and sustainability management. While some jobs like creative roles and those requiring human relationships may be safe, the changes will impact how occupational health and safety work is performed, with a focus on issues like increased monitoring, mental health support, and skills retraining.
