![Page 34: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Jobs can be divided into 2 big kinds: the ones with higher skills and higher income ,the other ones with lower skills and income.
Technology would reduce the number of low-skilled jobs available in the market.
More computerized methods in different jobs, more people would be sacked as their jobs can simply be replaced by computers.
![Page 35: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The workers without specific skills cannot find jobs.
The productivity of the country decreases.
The economy of the country decreases.
Companies will close if they cannot make profit.
More people are unemployed.
![Page 36: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Technology pushes the transformation of the economical structure of a place.
This can create a lot of jobs in the market.
![Page 37: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
More machines in the workplace, safer and more qualified products.
Increase the foreign investment
Encourage the currency flow
Have positive impact on the economy of a place
More jobs are created
![Page 38: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Technology can bring us new jobs
For example, Iphone Apps
More new jobs, less people are unemployed
Economy of a place is better
More jobs are available in the market
![Page 39: Disruptive Technologies: More Computers, Less Jobs?](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042715/559b731d1a28ab07398b4663/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Technologies can take away some jobs at the beginning, but only limited to the lower-skill ones
The effect of the decrease in number of jobs only lasts for a certain period of time
A transformation of economical structure then takes place
New jobs follows the better economy
