The advancement of technology will change the dynamics of the labour market and up to 45% of the activities done by professionals can be automated in the next two or three years, making the technology replace the cognitive tasks and the manuals for people to assume non-routine tasks and functions more satisfactory.
The information is from the study "The Revolution of Skills" of the ManpowerGourp, that was presented at the world Economic Forum at Davos last week.
Despite the likely rise of the machines in the work environment, 64% of companies reported that the number of employees should not change, 19% intend to increase the work force, 12% want to decrease and 5% don’t know.
With automation, three out of four business leaders believe that automation will require new skills in the next two years. "The technology will replace activities that are routine and considered mechanical. For the professional is expected a scope that has very strong competence and human characteristics such as creativity and emotional intelligence, which fosters human relationships and the cognitive flexibility, which is a competence to find and identify paths toward the conditions of relations and negotiations," says Marie Almström, HR director of ManpowerGroup.
The survey also shows the areas that will have increased demand in the coming years. Information technology is the sector with the largest forecast growth of 26%. Then, there are: human resources (20%) and front-line/ customer focus (15%). At the other end, between the areas with a lower growth perspective are: finance and accounting (1%), product and management (4%) and administration and office (5%).
According to the survey, 65% of the jobs that the generation Z (people born in the 90′s up to 2010) will not even exist. "Professionals need to be ready for the new jobs and the new skills that will emerge in function of the impacts of technology in the companies and business", says Márcia.
Among the companies there is a move to prepare for the changes: 74% offer in-house training, 62% offer external training, 39% hire experts to transfer skills to employees, 39% recruit staff with new skill sets, 29% recruit staff with new skill sets to replace the existing and 23% outsource business functions.
Megan points out that the profile of learning and the ability to absorb new knowledge happens to be essential in the new world of work. "The ability and desire to develop new skills to ensure employability in the long term, it will be a priority for professionals. This great technological advancement and the large difference between those with skill and those without are subjects of topicality and should be a priority agenda for professionals and companies".
The research was made with more than 18 thousand employers in 43 countries.
