Many jobs that used to be run by people have know been
taken over by machines .
Jobs that were reparative have been taking over
by "Robots"
They have taken jobs like in offices as these jobs are
done daily and are the same
Do Robots help?
Yes they can be as they are used in certain "dangerous
jobs" like spray painting items
Employment
Shops
Fewer people work in shops as they
don't need to count each items and
price it as this is all done on a computer
when purchasing items
Also a person doesn't have to go
round and check the stock as it is done
with a computer that automatically
gets rid of that item when brought
Banks
Fewer people are needed as they don't have to carry on counting the money as automated bank machines do this
Also many computers carry out the task of a basic job at a bank.
Jobs that have been created
As many jobs have been lost
many jobs have been created
As people need to run the robots and
control the computers

The changes of ICT
Computers and the software on
them is always changing so people
have to keep being trained to keep
up with latest updates.
Companies have to train people who work for
them all the time as they need they to be kept up
to date this can cost a lot of money to keep
training.
How is it done?
This is shown by tutorials from specialized
CD's or internet tutorials
Or they may have to go to collage to learn however
many companies chose to use the CD's as it cost less
Some companies produce there own
tutorials as it cost a lot less to teach
their staff techniques

everywhere and they help contact people easy and
all you need is signal people no longer need to be in
the office to reach you
