I am by the name Engr. Saifullahi A. A. Karama.
The impact of technology on jobs can never be overemphasized. Technology is a blessing to human civilisation as it simplifies all aspects of human activities such as transportation, military, industrialisation etc. And as such creates thousands of job opportunities for young investors of technology. However, some of my colleagues might argue that technology has made many people lose their jobs. This is quite reasonable but it only encourages them to think fast and work smart.
For instance, during the Covid-19 lockdown, almost everyone lost his/her job ideally. But with the help of technology people start to think outside the box on how to use technology most especially social media to promote their business, continue learning through online classes etc. With this, I would say technology has done more good than harm in the job sector. Thank you.

Good afternoon,
This is Ajay Kumar, today I am discussing on the topic impact of technology on jobs. I would like to tell you about what is technology? It refers to the study of skills, techniques, processes and methods for the production of goods and services. LIKE EVERY COIN HAS TWO FACES IT ALSO HAVE BOTH ADVANTAGE AND DISADVANTAGE. Firstly I am talking about the advantages.
1) By the Discovery of technology many works related to online become easier we can easily connect across the world.
2) With the increase in technology, many of them got more jobs in the IT sector.
3) It also helps to reduce the time of work.
4) it also helps to reduce the error happening in the organisation.
Now, we discuss disadvantages:
1) With the increase in technology, many of the industries get automated by machines which result in a decrease in the involvement of human beings.
2) Also with the increase of technology human becomes lazy.
3) With the increase of technology less chance to get a job in any organisation.
That's about all.
Thanks.

Good morning everyone, I'm discussing the Impact of technology.
According to opinion, Advantage and disadvantage are the two sides of the same coin, if you have the advantage of something then there will be disadvantage also, Now talking about the advantage of technology, taking the recent example,
- It helps a lot during a pandemic, as due to lockdown everything thing was closed but the thing which had helped is technology,
-It helps in reducing the time, as we have to waste or precious time for paying bills, in ticket reservation, for appointment to doctor etc, there are various things in which it had helped, we can accomplish our work within few sec.
- During the winter season the air in Delhi become more polluted due to stubble burning, technology helps in purifying the air.
- Technology had helped us to reach even to the other planets.
There are various more examples in which technology had played a major role.
Now coming to disadvantage-.
-Because of this we all are busy with our technical equipment like mobile and we don't spend our time with our family.
-because of technology many people have to leave their job, there is a lack of employment in our country, Humans are replaced by machines in big factories.
- We have left our culture, Humans are becoming lazy nowadays.
- Technology is the mother of Bombs, Guns, Missiles etc which is very dangerous for humankind, biggest example of this is the Nuclear drop in Hiroshima as well as in Nagasaki in Japan. We can see the effect of that yet now even after 70 years.
Now according to my opinion. We should use technology but in a limited way like parents should be strict toward their children, they should scold them for excess use of mobile, we should use our mind first, and try to find out the solution of any problem, we should use technology at last. Like we use to search everything on google even if there is a small calculation we use to use calculator according to me we should first use our mind then depend upon technology.
Thank you.

Hello Everyone,
In my opinion, the technology of this era not only helping people to save time but also helping the job sector. I would like to take the example of the recent Covid pandemic situation when there was lockdown in the entire country, all manufacturing units were closed but the IT sector was running smoothly and even some the companies doubled their earning. Technology helped to sift the working from the office to working from home. For teaching organizations, it is blessed because they are able to reach many students through online mode.
Finally, I would like to say Technology helped the job sector to improve its efficiency by saving time.

Hi,
This is Subramanyam.
Have visualised many of your assumptions.
Here is mine.
Technology has made no. Of our traditional jobs redundant (unnecessary). Ex- atm's replaced some bank jobs. And it is the new wave of technology like automation, artificial intelligence, and many other. As if we study about it properly, the job opportunities are increased, quite abnormally as well as decreased abnormally. Which results in many UP's and downs. In employment opportunities for us.
Technology helps us increase productivity which results in reducing the burden of employees and, it stops them from doing the repetition of the work. To carry on this the workers need to adopt some technical skills through training and much more, due to the usage of technology many educated youths can happily able to acquire their job, which somewhat reduces the educated unemployment. Technology helps in the growth of the economy. The companies that are using technology help themselves to reduce their expenses on their goods. Which helps them to expand their services. Which results in the creation of more finished goods that are able to be consumed.
Technology has the potential to create more job opportunities which result in an increase in the economy in rural areas. This is one of the temporary solutions to decrease rural unemployment.

Technology helps us to improve our capability and limits. So with the help of technology employees are able to work remotely so it is very beneficial for companies and employees. We thought before the covid pandemic was that most of the people will remain jobless after some years of the pandemic. But the situation seems different. Because of only the technology. Many freshers students also get jobs.

Hello everyone.
I am Narinder.
It is modern era, As technology is increasing the no. Of jobs is decreasing. Where 10 workers were working now there need only 2 to do work. It leads to increase unemployment in India. Machines are replacing man. Also, technology makes us lazy. Our creativity is decreasing. We are becoming overdependent on it. Suppose the light is off for one day all the works will stop.
But it has some positive aspects also. It reduces the time to do work. Jobs in the area of technology is increased. There is new techniques which make our work easy. We cannot imagine World without technology. Technology takes revolution in I industrial sector. Work from home is possible because of technology.
Thank you.

Let's move to our topic. Our topic is impact of technology on jobs. Technology enhances the usefulness of goods and services. Technology is one of the most valuable tools that we have available of our fingertips every day.
As we know that every coin has two aspects one is positive and the other is negative.
Firstly I want to discuss its positive aspects.
1. High-risking jobs like mining, excavating, etc. Can be done robots.
2. Agriculture farming jobs can be increases by technology.
3. With technology, we can do work more efficiently and easily.
4. Work from home is possible because of technology.
5. Work will be modernized and India will be digitalized by technology.
6. While doing jobs it saves our time.
It's negative aspects_.
1. With the introduction of technology of jobs unskilled persons have to leave their jobs.
2. It reduces the chances to gain government jobs like ATMs and in the banking sectors.
3. With the introduction of technology, unemployment increases.
4. Many types of health issues.
5. It leads to human lazy.
6. Many of the persons were looted due to technology.
As I think we should be modernised as time changes to maintain the requirement of population.
Through technology, we connect with others socially. Nowadays technology is a boon for our society.

Today we are going to discuss the impact of technology on jobs. With the advancement of technology, our work has become much easier compared to past days. When it comes to see your close ones who are staying far away from home, due to job or studies, it's just a matter of tap on the screen compared to the past days when a letter used to take at least three weeks to reach India from England. Due to the drastic technological advancements, a person like Jeff Bezos is able to make space tours.
But again we all have to agree that each and everything in this world has its own pros and cons.
The various pros of the impact of technology on jobs:-.
A) The programming language has advanced a lot with technology which actually makes our work much easier and faster compared to previous days where one has to remember numerous coding for simple typing.
B) Jobs which involved a huge amount of risk like mining, excavating, building sky-scrapers can be replaced by various robots.
C) With the advancement of technology, work from home is possible for pregnant women. And now in this COVID situation online has become one of the major ways to continue with various possible jobs without a complete halt on various projects.
D) With the more improvement of technology, the dream for Digital India is coming into reality. Students can get their certification done from foreign universities at the comfort of their home only because of the online mode which will be beneficial for them in searching for various jobs.
E) With the advancement of technology, employees can even meet their deadlines much faster than before, which in turn benefits the organization by increasing productivity and quality.
There is a saying that "If you believe in God, you have to believe in Devil". Similarly, if you accept the boon of any topic, you have to accept the bane of it.
So now I will be discussing the disadvantages of the impact of technology on jobs:-.
A) There are many jobs that are becoming redundant like ATMs are replacing some bank jobs.
B) Many hotels are introducing self-check-in terminals, where the guests do the check-in procedure on their own which are actually taking away the jobs of receptionists.
C) With the introduction of technology of jobs, many unskilled workers are losing their jobs. Not only the jobs of unskilled or semi-skilled are at stake but also the jobs of highly skilled employees are at risk with the introduction of so-called "Artificial Intelligence".
But in the end, I would like to end in a positive note. During the time of the Industrial Revolution, there were many such misconceptions that industries would be taking much of the jobs, but on contrary, it happened that Industrial Revolution had created a lot of options for new jobs. It is seen that countries which are much technologically advanced has more scope of jibs compared to the countries who are far behind in technology.
