Technology-driven changes in the job market, an impetus to reskilling India
The sphere of business is in a state of quiver these days, which is inducing a feeling of uneasiness and nervousness among job seekers. This is caused due to the division of workers into two sharply contrasting sets having varying circumstances — tech-driven workers and non-tech driven workers. Unemployment and underemployment are the consequences of this problem especially among youth which are not only stagnating earnings of a large number of households but also leading to inequality among workers. The fear around automation and technology impacts job seekers as they have not updated themselves with trending skills and this will continue to grow as innovations have the power to modify the employment landscape. Although millions of people have lost their jobs as a result of new technologies and because of their behavior of resistance to change, millions of jobs are also created in which they can fit in if they focus on the up-gradation of skills.
