The Future of Work webinar – February 19

Wave after wave of rapid technological change is happening in Canada.

Some workers are at high risk of having their jobs automated, and have few opportunities to transition to other occupations—especially without significant retraining. But there is still no consensus on the proportion of jobs that could be fully automated or transformed by technology. Canadian leaders must understand how this will shift our labour market. So how do we know where to start?

The Conference Board of Canada will host a free webinar entitled Future of Work: Digital Technologies and Canada’s Labour Market, on Wednesday, February 19 from 2 to 3 p.m.

The webinar will explore:

  • What are Canada’s most vulnerable occupations? How do we determine them?
  • Which Canadian industries have the highest concentrations of high-risk, low-mobility jobs?
  • What trends and technologies are already affecting these industries and workers?
  • Where is the Conference Board of Canada’s research going next?
