12 million jobs will be lost to automation across Europe by 2040, says Forrester

January 18, 2022 by Editor Leave a Comment

Forrester forecasts that 34 percent of European jobs are at risk and 12 million jobs will be lost to automation across five European countries – France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK – by 2040.

While the pandemic continues to pressure European businesses to invest more heavily and rapidly in automation, it’s not the only factor contributing to the forecasted job loss.

According to Forrester’s Future of Jobs Forecast, 2020 to 2040 (Europe-5), workers with little bargaining power are most at risk of displacement, especially in countries where many are subject to casual employment contracts, including zero-hour contracts in the UK, which require no guaranteed working hours, or part-time jobs with low wages, such as “mini-jobs” in Germany.
