That's incorrect. The level of skill and automation potential aren't related. For instance healthcare is a hugely growing market with a lot of low skilled opportunities requiring human interaction.
- Reelin 6y ago> The level of skill and automation potential aren't related. I never claimed they were? I said that when a job is automated away, any that replace it inevitably require a higher skill level. Thus the skill floor rises over time. > requiring human interaction That's the key. That's a specific task that we can't (yet) automate.
- odshoifsdhfs 6y agoWhat kind of jobs are those? In my country, except janitors and people working cafeteria, pretty much any job in healthcare requires some kind of degree (exception is taking care of old folks in private homes, but even those require a substancial amount of staff with some kind of schooling in it)
- feu 6y agoTheatre support worker would be one example of a healthcare role that doesn't require a degree. This is in the context of the UK NHS. I'm unsure if an equivalent role is common within the healthcare systems of other countries.
- DanBC 6y agoDon't ODPs need to have a degree in England? https://www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/explore-roles/allied-health-professionals/roles-allied-health-professions/operating-department-practitioner https://www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/explore-roles/allied-health...
- feu 6y agoYes, ODP is a role which requires more qualifications. It's a separate role from theatre support worker. https://www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/explore-roles/wider-healthcare-team/roles-wider-healthcare-team/clinical-support-staff/theatre-support-worker https://www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/explore-roles/wider-healthc...
