Robots are gradually replacing people at many jobs.

The report said that in about 60% of jobs, at least 1/3 of the activity could be done by machines.

'We estimate that about 400 million to 800 million people in the world can be replaced by machines and need to find new jobs in 2030' , the report said.

While the report said that workers lost their jobs because robots could still find new jobs, they needed to learn new skills. The labor force in China is said to be most affected by this transfer.

'China will face a large number of workers who need to change jobs (about 100 million people), if automation is applied quickly or accounts for about 12% of the workforce by 2030' , reports. said.

According to the report, mechanical tasks such as operating machines and serving fast food are at the highest risk of being replaced by robots. The jobs in unpredictable environments are least changed.
