Hello Everyone.

From my perspective, Technology has increased the job opportunity and also decreased job opportunities.

1. The employment has increased for the class of people who are interested in It departments.

2. The number of entrepreneurs has increased.

3. As the introduction of new technology, it has attracted the people for going online shoppings and that increases the employment for delivery boys.

4. Nowadays people are earning money by uploading their talents on any social sites or Youtube, now technology has introduced a new field of opportunities like YouTuber.

5. People are using technology with great interest and that is creating employment in It industries.

Let's start our topic of discussion today, which is Impact of Technology on jobs. With increasing digitalization and automation, huge progress has been made in job sectors due to new technologies coming out everyday. However it comes with a cost and here we will discuss about what impact it is making.

One thing that has happened that has had significant impact on job sector is digitalisation of work or simply saying computers are replacing human labour today. They is very benefical for industries in manufaturing sector because it has significantly reduced companys cost due to no labour employement and also has made work work more precise. However due to this unemployement of lower level workers has increased and that could become a problem in the future.

If we talk about corporate sector with updating technology paperwork has been reduced and everything has been transferred to computers.

With advancement in AI technology, jobs will be significantly reduced in the future. Positions will be open for working alongside AI to manage AI but that would require extensive skills and would not benefit low level workers.

Due to advancements in technology, unemployment can become a big problem which can lead to severe consequences like strikes and revolts. It is important to track the level of employment at this stage to predict future scenario and act according to it. In corporate sector, training people in computer technology will open doors to them of new jobs fields.

Hi friends.

In my view, the impact of technology has a great role in the development of our country as well as the uplifting of our society. That is today everything is infront of our finger tip, by using these technologies we can do any thing eg. Online banking, ticket booking, food odering. So no need of to go anywhere. And one more thing is that many people have their own ideas and these emerging technologies help them or give a platform to implement these ideas. The same way there are some demerits that it reduces the job opportunities, many works that are done by machines itself.

Thank you.

Hello, guys good afternoon.

I got the opportunity to share my views. There is some good and bad impact of technology on jobs. But the good impact is quite a havier than a bad one. Nowadays automation and digitalisation are increasing day by day. Due to automation machine can do a lot of work within less time but a man can't. It also improves productivity and quality of production while there might be chances of error in human work. Overall technology improves our economy as well as GDP.

It has also some demerits especially those who are illiterate and not aware of technology how it works so he might have problems in getting a job. Overall it creates the problem of unemployment.

So the government should provide good infrastructure, training programme to make them understand about technology so that they will be able to get a job.

As we all know that technology is growing so fast, a phone which was 20 years back thought only of a dream is now the most vital thing in our life. Who knows, 20 years from now we could be able to travel to some location without actually being there. Technology affects are lives in so many diverse ways, we aren't even able to tell how is it affecting us in negative ways. Nowadays there are so many apps for e-commerce lots of businesses are flourishing, But at the same small businesses, shops sales are decreasing, cause who wants to go on a hot and humid day to buy garments, when it can be done while siting on a sofa. So, although e-commerce is allowing to grow India economically, it is directly or indirectly being the reason for the rapid growth of unemployment.

Hello all, I would like to present my thoughts on the impact of technology on the jobs.

Here, I noticed most of the people are saying that everything has two sides, merits and demerits and we should think about merits only, but what I think is a little bit different. I totally agree with you all that technology has improved our lives and making our work faster. But nowadays there are demerits which are becoming a crisis in a particular field of any work where technology or automation is used. Technology is making our life so easy that we don't even need to go outside of the house and all the fundamental needs we can fullfil just by using a smartphone which is also a part of the technology. Technology doesn't let us move from one place and interact with people outside and it is breaking our social contact, and then they find difficult to interact with people face to face. And the most important thing is that we don't even need to be in front of each other to discuss the topic like Impact of technology on jobs.

Hi, I would like to state my point of view on the impact of technology on jobs. Nowadays technology is growing tremendously and providing us quality and quantity services with full efficiency and also less labour and manual work is required because of advancement in technology. It only requires a literate and skilled people to manage whole work and product to sell in the market. This also has an evil effect on the illerate people which create less employment because of more machice work than the manual labour work.

Technology has a huge effect on jobs both in good or bad ways. Due to the use of technology, the workload gets reduced, the manual error is not there, and it also saves time. But simultaneously it also affects badly like if most of the work is done by some device then the scope of the people to do that work decreases as a result unemployment increases. In my opinion, the use of technology is great where manual work is tiresome but not in all kind of jobs.

In my point of view, everyone knows that everything has two sides one is merit and another is demerit but everyone should follow the merit side.

In the case of technology, many job opportunity has come into the society which decreases unemployment in all over the world but if we saw the back side then the peoples are going to be lazy.
