The better companies understand the upcoming developments, the better equipped they will be to respond to these changes. Over the last ten years or so, with the development of digital technology, many new jobs have been created, forcing some companies to completely rethink their operations. Hiring, redundancies, training plans\u2026 the consequences of these upheavals can be quite significant. Moreover, they entail financial, human and sometimes material investment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making projections on future occupations requires taking into account the current demographic situation and employment trends. By studying the current needs of companies, some research institutes are able to predict future job creation and loss. New training courses are created every year and many employees retire and are not replaced, which indicates a change in the expectations and needs of the professional world. Today\u2019s jobs no longer resemble those of the past, and those of the future will also be very different indeed. Although it is difficult to accurately predict the titles of these new jobs, certain trends are very clear.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Responding to new business needs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forward-looking management of jobs and skills (GPEC \u2013 Gestion Pr\u00e9visionnelle des Emplois et des Comp\u00e9tences) is an approach that allows for a better understanding of changes in terms of jobs and skills in the world of work. GPEC can be carried out at company, occupational sector or even regional level in certain cases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are various advantages to this approach, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reducing recruitment difficulties;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Resolving overstaffing issues;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adapting training programmes;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enabling employees to upgrade their skills;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supporting change in companies;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encouraging the involvement and personal development of employees;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reducing the costs associated with potential imbalances;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Solving age pyramid problems.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The emergence of new professions can lead to business disruption, but the aim of GPEC is to anticipate changes so as to avoid this phenomenon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On a global scale, digital technology is revolutionising the job market and presenting ever greater opportunities. This is why the European Commission has set the objective of promoting projects and strategies to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu\/en\/policies\/digital-skills-and-jobs\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">improve the level of digital skills of employees in Europe<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The emergence of technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence and virtual reality promises to revolutionise the world of work. New roles are expected to emerge and new training courses will be developed for the next generation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artificial intelligence is expected to be an important milestone in transforming the world of work and is currently a real revolution in innovation. Technologies such as voice assistants like Siri and Alexa or autonomous vehicles bear witness to a major change in the digital world. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.financedigest.com\/ai-will-power-95-of-customer-interactions-by-2025.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A study by Servion Global Solutions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> predicts that artificial intelligence will be responsible for 95% of consumer interactions by 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What will the jobs of the future be?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technological innovations will be accompanied by the emergence of new roles and new departments within companies. Here are some examples of new jobs that are expected to become commonplace in companies by 2030.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The data analyst<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data analysts are responsible for identifying consumer insights based on a large amount of collected data. They collect data from various sources, synthesise it and analyse it in order to build user profiles. Data analysts help companies to better understand their customers and prospects so that they can tailor their value proposition, targeting and communication.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AI personality designer<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role of AI personality designer combines the professional skills of a psychologist with those of an engineer. The main focus of their work is to study automated virtual assistants to make them think and interact in a human way.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ethicist<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The development of artificial intelligence is generating new barriers and obstacles for companies that have already taken the plunge. Algorithms evolve and require regular adjustment in order to function better in society without becoming harmful to humans. For example, robots are increasingly present in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">warehouses<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: the role of the ethicist is therefore to optimise them in order to ensure that they maintain a positive impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultimately, the future world of work is already changing. The jobs of future generations will not be the same as they are today, just as their fields of application are likely to change considerably. While the digital sector has already generated a first wave of new jobs over the last ten years, a second wave is expected to shake up current business practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anticipating the needs of companies and the evolution of these needs will make it possible to prepare for the future by offering training plans, career development and skills upgrading to current employees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more information please visit:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.manutan.co.uk\/en\/key\/future-of-work?utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_source=wordpress&amp;utm_campaign=360futureofwork2021&amp;utm_content=nl1_%20How_can_you_develop_your_employees'_skills_for_the_jobs_of_the_future\">www.manutan.co.uk\/future-of-work\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A study carried out by McKinsey has recently revealed that 800 million jobs are expected to be lost to new technologies by 2030.
