This Deloitte report reveals that although the replacement of people by machines is well understood, the scale and scope of changes yet to come may not be. To understand the potential impact of computers and robots on jobs in the UK, Deloitte has partnered with Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A Osborne to estimate the types and number of jobs at risk from automation. The research finds that a lower proportion of jobs are at risk in London than in the  rest of the UK, but even here the risks are significant and substantial changes are inevitable. Of particular concern is the assessment that London jobs paying less than £30,000 a year are over eight times more likely to disappear than jobs paying over £100,000. The report emphasises that to develop and maintain the talent pool that London needs, forward planning and successful policy implementation are essential, and sets out an agenda for action for businesses and policy makers as they develop strategies for the future.
