From pet supplies to policing may seem like a big leap, but a new RBC report released ahead of International Women&#8217;s Day suggests women are well positioned to harness their skills to make career transitions such as Kennedy&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>The report, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rbc.com\/en\/economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/Advantagewomen_2019.pdf?_ga=2.219810329.1829978376.1571583896-1577137382.1571330560\">Advantage women: how an automated future could play to women\u2019s strengths<\/a>, finds that in the age of automation, women are more likely than men to lose their jobs. Despite high-profile attention paid to things such as auto plant closures, 54% of at-risk jobs, or 3.4 million, are held by women. Jobs such as administrative assistants, clerks and bank tellers \u2014 which are more likely to be filled by women \u2014 are losing ground to new software, self-checkouts and ATMs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rds-callout-white\" style=\"border: 1px solid #c4c8cc;\">\n<div class=\"rds-gcw\">\n<div class=\"img mob-w-100\" style=\"display: inline-block; vertical-align: top;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/download-advantage-women.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"rds-inline pad-hlf\" style=\"display: inline-block; vertical-align: top;\">\n<h4 class=\"mar-t\">Read the Full Report<\/h4>\n<p><a class=\"btn tertiary\" role=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rbc.com\/en\/economics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/11\/Advantagewomen_2019.pdf?_ga=2.219810329.1829978376.1571583896-1577137382.1571330560\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" ga-on=\"click\" ga-event-category=\"Economics\" ga-event-action=\"mid-funnel click\" ga-event-label=\"advantage women PDF dl-203982\">Download<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/>\nBut even though women are at a greater risk of losing their jobs to automation, they are also more likely to possess the skills required for the jobs of tomorrow. Women are largely concentrated in occupations that use more general and social skills, or what we call \u201chuman skills,&#8221; like working with clients and customers \u2014 roles that involve handling situations a robot can&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>This means even as particular tasks are automated, the skills that women are more likely to possess continue to be in high demand: the ability to interact with the public, build interpersonal relationships and care for others. They&#8217;re also more likely to have worked with computers and be familiar with digital technologies. This sets women up well to transition into growing job fields, including early childhood education, veterinary technicians and nursing or home support work.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, men are more than three times as likely to be in construction jobs, and more than twice as likely to be in manufacturing \u2014 positions that are also at high risk of being automated, but where the required skills are more task-specific and specialized, like repairing and operating machinery. It&#8217;s this divide between generalists and specialists that may determine success in the automated future, and why women are more likely to find new careers by building on their existing skills.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy sees \u201cso many&#8221; links between her old job and her new one: the need for communication and digital skills, and problem-solving abilities. There is also a surprising amount of paperwork in policing, which requires making detail-oriented notes, just like in audits.<\/p>\n<p>When the retail chain was implementing a new computer operating system, she was on the frontlines \u2014 which turned out to be good training for the frontlines of policing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI remember my first experience being sworn at by one franchisee who was angry about the new computer system,&#8221; Kennedy said. \u201cIt taught me how to be composed when dealing with difficult people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With creative thinking and fresh training, women are well-positioned to continue making gains in tomorrow&#8217;s labour market. But they can&#8217;t do it alone. RBC research also finds women are still substantially underrepresented in management positions, which are among the jobs least at risk of automation. Among young Canadians aged 25 to 29, men are almost twice as likely to be in a management occupation as women.<\/p>\n<p>The policy challenge is to help workers adapt to a changing workplace, while leveraging the opportunity that disruption opens up to bridge the management skills gap and boost women&#8217;s representation in leadership roles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new RBC report, Advantage women: how an automated future could play to women&#8217;s strengths, finds women have the skills for
