Chapter Chapter 1 in The Fourth Industrial Revolution, 2021, pp 1-19 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Although an extensive literature has been developed that examines the impact of technological change, to date this has not included a focus on the impacts of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies on industry sectors in Australia. This book sets out to fill that gap by exploring a broad range of Australian industry sectors categorised by the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification of Industries (ANZSIC). It explores the types of new technologies associated with the 4IR being implemented across eight sectors; and multiple stakeholders’ predictions about the potential changes to the associated labour markets, jobs, and skills.
