Workers Are Prepping for Automation By Pursuing New Skills – and Not Just in the U.S., Pearson Survey Finds – Market Brief

“A new survey conducted by the Harris Poll on behalf of Pearson, found that 20 percent of workers across 19 countries say they’ve had to “upskill” on their jobs through education over the past two years because some part of their work duties have been automated. Twenty-one percent of workers in the U.S. said they have taken that step. The need is even higher in fast-developing nations, such as China, where 26 percent said they’ve pursued further education because some part of their job was automated, and India, where 31 percent of those surveyed said they’ve done so — the highest portion for any country in the survey.”
