Introduction

3. This project analyzes both the advantages
and disadvantages of robotics in various
human industries and how humans could
work with them. By examining automation's
impact on employment, wages, and
economic inequality, the research focuses
on how Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 could
help balance technological progress with
workforce needs.
Abstract

4. Introduction

5. Introduction
The key objective of this report is
to evaluate the impact of
automation on human jobs and
propose strategies to minimize
its negative effects on workers
while ensuring a smooth
transition to a more tech-driven
economy.
Automation and robotics are transforming industries
across the globe. In recent years, technological
advancements have significantly reshaped the
landscape of industries such as manufacturing,
healthcare, and transportation. While these changes
bring benefits like increased efficiency, safety, and cost
savings, they also raise concerns about job
displacement and economic inequality.
This report explores the effects of automation on the
workforce, specifically focusing on its implications for
employment, wages, and economic inequality. The
research examines how Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030,
which aims to diversify the economy and invest in
human capital, aligns with the increasing automation
of various sectors.

6. What is a Robot?

7. ● A robot is an automated machine
designed to perform specific tasks.
● Robots can be industrial, service, medical,
or exploration types.
● They perform tasks from simple repetitive
work to complex operations. And the
What is a Robot?

8. The beginning of
robotics
Robots began being used in
factories in 1961, with the
deployment of the Unimate, widely
considered the first industrial
robot. Developed by George Devol
and Joseph Engelberger, the
Unimate was installed at a General
Motors plant in Trenton, New
Jersey, to handle tasks such as
welding and die casting on
automobile production lines.

9. Types of Robots
 Industrial Robots: These are used in
manufacturing for tasks such as welding, painting,
and assembly.
 Service Robots: Perform tasks for humans,
including cleaning or delivering.
 Medical Robots: Assist in performing surgeries or
rehabilitation.
 Exploration Robots: Used in environments such as
space or deep-sea exploration.

Robots Together

11. Humans Taking Jobs
• The historical context of human job creation in traditional
industries like agriculture, manufacturing, and services.
• The rise of human involvement in high-skill professions,
e.g., technology, healthcare, and education.
• Key human-driven sectors where workers continue to
expand their roles.
• Human labor in specialized fields that require creativity,
problem-solving, and leadership.
• The transformation of job roles due to advancements in
technology.

12. Robots Taking Jobs
• Introduction to robotics and its ability to perform repetitive
tasks in manufacturing.
• Examples from industries where robots have replaced
manual labor like the automotive industry.
• Benefits of robots: Efficiency and precision in tasks
previously handled by humans.
• Robots replacing human workers in high-risk environments
like mining and construction.
• Automation in warehouses and distribution centers.

13. Integration Between Humans
and Robots
• The need for collaboration between humans and robots for
optimal efficiency.
• Examples of robots and humans working together in
manufacturing and logistics.
• How robots can help reduce human strain in repetitive and
dangerous tasks.
• The role of human workers in training, programming, and
monitoring robots.
• Collaboration in healthcare: Human doctors working with
robotic surgery tools.

14. Literature Review

Robotics integration effect

15. Literature Review
Numerous studies have examined the role of automation
and its implications for employment. According to the World
Economic Forum (2018), automation could displace millions of
jobs by 2030, particularly in industries such as manufacturing,
retail, and logistics. However, automation also creates new
opportunities for workers with specialized skills in robotics, AI
programming, and machine learning.
The skills gap is a major concern. As automation takes over
more routine tasks, the demand for high-skilled workers is
growing. A report by Brynjolfsson and McAfee (2014)
highlights that while automation displaces jobs in some
sectors, it simultaneously creates high-demand roles in tech
fields.

16. Robotics integration effect
The integration of robots into industries brings both benefits and challenges for
human workers. While automation improves efficiency, safety, and productivity
especially in sectors like automobile manufacturing, warehousing, and
healthcare—it also leads to job displacement for workers lacking the skills to
adapt. Robots are increasingly replacing manual labor and even white-collar
tasks, raising concerns about unemployment among low-skilled workers.
However, automation also creates new job opportunities in robotics, AI, and data
science. To mitigate job loss, retraining and upskilling programs are essential,
particularly in high-growth sectors like technology, healthcare, and renewable
energy, aligning with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 for economic diversification.

17. Advantages & Disadvantages of
Robotics in Jobs

18. Advantages of Robotics in Jobs
1. Enhanced Productivity: Robots can operate continuously
without breaks, leading to significant increases in output and
efficiency.
2. Improved Quality: The precision of robots reduces errors in
manufacturing processes, resulting in higher quality products.
3. Safety Improvements: Robots can perform dangerous tasks,
thereby reducing the risk of workplace injuries for human
employees.
4. Cost Efficiency: Over time, robots can lower operational costs
by minimizing labor expenses associated with repetitive work.

19. Disadvantages of Robotics in Jobs
1. Job Loss: Automation can lead to the displacement of low-skill
jobs, causing economic disruption for affected workers.
2. High Initial Investment: The cost of acquiring and
implementing robotic systems can be substantial, posing a
barrier for some businesses.
3. Maintenance Requirements: Robots require ongoing
maintenance and support, which can incur additional costs and
downtime.
4. Limited Adaptability: Many robots are designed for specific
tasks and may struggle to adapt to new processes or changes in
demand.

21. Conclusion
In summary, the rise of automation and robotics Is a significant change in the
employment sector, with all its benefits and challenges. This review shows that while
these technologies have the potential to bring substantial improvement in efficiency
and safety, they also carry a risk of job displacement, especially for low-skilled workers.
As Saudi Arabia advances toward its Vision 2030 agenda, there will be a need to zero in
on strategies that facilitate workforce adaptation, with emphasis on broad retraining
and upskilling programs. Investment in education and cooperation among the
government, industry, and educational institutions in the country would surely work
together to ensure that Its workforce would be well-equipped to succeed in an
increasingly automated economy. In conclusion, through careful strategizing and
anticipatory actions, the incorporation of technology has the potential to foster a more
just and thriving future for every employee
