NEW research has revealed the jobs most in danger of being supplanted by AI within the next year.

- LUCY JOHN

The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) conducted a survey involving more than 2,000 employers regarding their recruitment, redundancy and pay plans for the upcoming year.

The study disclosed that one in six (17%) employers anticipate AI will diminish their workforce over the next year, with two thirds (62%) predicting clerical, junior managerial, professional or administrative roles are most likely to be lost.

One in four (26%) employers in large private sector firms foresee their workforce contracting, compared with 17% in the private sector and 20% in the public sector.
