The Bureau of labor statistics of the USA published a forecast of the most popular professions in the era of total robotization, which will come in 10 years.
With a huge separation are in the lead assistants for personal hygiene, registered nurses and chefs with the waiters.
What will make people when in production they will be replaced by robots, offices — artificial intelligence, and behind the wheel — the autopilot? While no one can accurately answer this question. One thing is clear: the population of developed countries is aging, and therefore need much more personnel to care for the elderly.
The Bureau of labor statistics of the USA published a prediction as to which professions will be most in demand by 2026. According to the forecast, will appear 750 thousand new vacancies of assistants personal hygiene and 426 of thousands of vacancies home helpers. Both professions involve assisting the elderly who do not live in a nursing home, and in their apartments and houses. The difference is that assistants personal hygiene must be skilled in first aid or even have a medical certificate.
Today these professions in the United States is quite low pay — $10,66 per hour compared to the average salary of $17,86 per hour. Most often, such hard and disagreeable work come from women, “colored” immigrants and people with only a high school education (sometimes not). If the Bureau projections come true, the number of professionals in this region will grow from 2.6 million to 3.4 million by 2026 and 10% of all jobs that will be created in the next decade. Then this job will be better paid and will cease to be undervalued.
In second place for growth in the number of vacancies in the era of robotics and artificial intelligence were cooks and waiters, they will take 580 thousand new jobs. Followed by registered nurses (437 thousand), after which, those same workers at home. Only on the fifth place will be software developers, the number of vacancies in this field will increase by 2026 to 253 thousand.
The calculations of government agencies on employment suggests that will rise above all offer in the field of unskilled labor. After the developers are: janitors and cleaners (plus 233 thousand vacancies), operational managers (206 thousand), laborers and movers (201 thousand), low-skilled medical staff (185 thousand) and staff (183 thousand).
As can be seen, robotics will not save people from physically demanding, unskilled labor, hopes of her adherents. For the reason that change low loader on the expensive robot is economically unprofitable. Better to just teach people to manage not being too intellectual and, consequently, cheap semi-automatic loader. Automation primarily threaten relatively high-paying professions — economists, lawyers, realtors, etc along with the Exception of programmers are professionals in the field of renewable energy. But here, the increase in the number of vacancies after a decade will be modest. According to calculations by the Bureau of labor statistics, the U.S. will be in demand occupations, such as “installer of solar panels” and “master of wind turbines”. In General, the field of renewable energy sources will provide only about 16 thousand new jobs.
Based on the forecasts of the Bureau of labor statistics of the United States, Business Insider has compiled a list of the most promising professions in the next 10 years. The publication focused on the most high-paying jobs, with annual income higher than the average for the U.S. figure of $37 thousand.
