Which type of unemployment would increase if workers lost their jobs because their positions were replaced by an automated process
Answers
Technological unemployment would increase if workers lost their jobs because their positions were replaced by an automated process.
Some of the jobs which have been replaced by the automated process include assembly line and factory workers, phone operators, telemarketers, warehouse moving, stockroom, and other such jobs have been replaced by automated process.
Structural unemployment increases if the workers lose their jobs because their positions are replaced by automated processes.
EXPLANATION:
Structural unemployment has been a result of growth of technology as well as artificial intelligence. This has resulted in the development of machines and robots that have skills that can work like humans.
In fact, these machines are developed with even more skills and intelligence than humans and so are fast replacing labour in the industries leaving humans unemployed.
