Engberg, Erik, Mark Hellsten, Farrukh Javed, Magnus Lodefalk, Radka Sabolová, Sarah Schroeder & Aili Tang (2025): Artificial intelligence, hiring and employment: job postings evidence from Sweden. In: Applied Economics Letters, S. 1-6. DOI:10.1080/13504851.2025.2497431
Abstract
"This paper investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on hiring and employment, using the universe of job postings published by the Swedish Public Employment Service from 2014 to 2022 and full-population administrative data for Sweden. We exploit a detailed measure of AI exposure according to occupational content and find that establishments exposed to AI are more likely to hire AI workers. Survey data further indicate that AI exposure aligns with greater use of AI services. Importantly, rather than displacing non-AI workers, AI exposure is positively associated with increased hiring for both AI and non-AI roles. In the absence of substantial productivity gains that might account for this increase, we interpret the positive link between AI exposure and non-AI hiring as evidence that establishments are using AI to augment existing roles and expand task capabilities, rather than to replace non-AI workers."

Fontanelli, Luca, Mattia Guerini, Raffaele Miniaci & Angelo Secchi (2025): Predictive AI and productivity growth dynamics: Evidence from French firms. In: Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, Jg. 240. DOI:10.1016/j.jebo.2025.107336
Abstract
"While artificial intelligence (AI) adoption holds the potential to enhance business operations through improved forecasting and automation, its relation with average productivity growth remain highly heterogeneous across firms. This paper shifts the focus and investigates the impact of predictive AI on the volatility of firms’ productivity growth rates. Using firm-level data from the 2019 French ICT survey, we provide robust evidence that AI use is associated with increased volatility. This relationship persists across multiple robustness checks, including analyses balancing AI users and other firms based on key observables. To propose a possible mechanisms underlying this relation, we compare firms that purchase AI from external providers (“AI buyers”) and those that develop AI in-house (“AI developers”). Our results show that heightened volatility is concentrated among AI buyers, whereas firms that develop AI internally experience no such association. Finally, we find that the AI-volatility link among “AI buyers” is mitigated in firms with a higher share of ICT engineers and technicians, suggesting that AI’s successful integration requires complementary human capital."

Fornasari, Tommaso & Mariasole Bannò (2025): Exploring Gender Disparities in the Era of AI. In: M. Agostini, V. Beretta, M. C. Demartini, A. Ghio & S. Trucco (Hrsg.) (2025): Diversity and Equity in Accounting. Emerging Issues, Challenges and Opportunities, S. 203-214.
Abstract
"This chapter investigates the gender disparities in the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) within the accounting profession, focusing on both the potential risks and benefits that AI presents. Automation technologies, including AI, have rapidly advanced, significantly altering the landscape of work across various industries. The integration of AI into the workforce raises concerns about widespread job displacement, particularly affecting both low-skill and high-skill positions. Our research aims to address the underexplored area of how AI impacts gender disparities in the workplace, specifically within the accounting field. Through qualitative methods, including in-depth interviews with diverse stakeholders, we analyze the risks and opportunities AI presents for women compared to men. The study seeks to uncover workforce inequalities and understand the gender-specific implications of AI, highlighting the need for equitable access to training and resources to ensure both men and women can thrive in an AI-driven work environment. The findings reveal that AI implementation can result in both positive and negative outcomes, influencing employment patterns and job satisfaction. While AI can enhance efficiency and productivity, it also poses risks such as job displacement and increased stress due to work insecurity. The gender disparity in STEM education exacerbates these issues, as women are underrepresented in fields that are crucial for AI-related job opportunities. The chapter emphasizes the importance of proactive measures, including targeted educational programs and inclusive policies, to mitigate the adverse impacts of AI and promote gender equality in the evolving job market."

Fouarge, Didier, Marie-Christine Fregin, Simon Janssen, Mark Levels, Raymond Montizaan, Pelin Özgül, Nicholas Rounding & Michael Stops (2025): How AI-Augmented Training Improves Worker Productivity. (IZA discussion paper / Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit 18224), Bonn, 29 S., App.
Abstract
"We analyze the impact of AI-augmented training on worker productivity in a financial services company. The company introduced an AI tool that provides performance feedback on call center agents to guide their training. To estimate causal effects, we exploit the staggered roll out of the AI-tool. The AI-augmented training reduces call handling time by 10 percent. We find larger effects for short-tenured workers because they spend less time putting clients on hold. But the AI-augmented training also improves communication style with relatively stronger effects for long-tenured agents, and we find slightly positive effects on customer satisfaction."

Abstract
"How does the implementation of a new technology affect workers? Using detailed worker-level data for Germany, we analyse the impact of new technologies on non-monetary working conditions such as overtime, training and perceived labor intensity. We show that the strongest effects arise in the first year of their implementation. These effects diminish after the introduction period. We further provide evidence that the impact of technology adoption varies across diverse occupational and industrial contexts. Workers in occupations with a higher task substitution potential show stronger increases in overtime, training measures and labor intensity. Analyzing industry characteristics, we find that employees exposed to a new technology react more strongly in industries with higher business dynamics in terms of organisational capital and R&D investment. Extending these considerations to information and communication technology (ICT) usage, we show that new technologies exert stronger effects in industries with high investment in ICT equipment or low investment in software."

Abstract
"Artificial intelligence (AI) is a prominent topic regarding the digitalisation of work and its diffusion is expected to radically change job quality. Overall, there exists a large discrepancy between discursive expectations and quantitative empirical evidence. In this article, we use a novel module from the German Socio-Economic Panel to examine the overall prevalence of AI at work, the determinants that increase the likelihood of AI use, and its association with autonomy. The results show that 38% of German workers use AI, and AI use is associated with the use of specific digital technologies. Workers in high-level, non-routine occupations are more likely to use AI, particularly in comparison to manual workers. Moreover, the association between AI and autonomy is merely superficial and cannot be properly evaluated without considering workplace preconditions." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

Abstract
"This study explores the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and workers’ well-being and healthusing longitudinal survey data from Germany (2000–2020). Using a measure of occupational exposure to AI, we explore an event study design and a difference-in-differences approach to compare AI-exposed and non-exposed workers. Before AI became widely available, there is no evidence of differential pretrends in workers’ well-being and health. We findno evidence of a sizeable negative impact of AI on workers’ well-being and mental health. If anything, there is evidence of an improvement in health status and health satisfaction, which may be explained by the decline in job physical intensity. Overall, our results are consistent with the lack of negative effects of AI on the labor markets." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))

A refined global index of occupational exposure. (ILO working paper / International Labour Organization 140), Geneva, 72 S. DOI:10.54394/hetp0387
Abstract
"This study updates the ILO’s 2023 Global Index of Occupational Exposure to Generative AI (GenAI), incorporating recent advances in the technology and increasing user familiarity with GenAI tools. Using a representative sample from the 29,753 tasks in the Polish occupational classification system and a survey of 1,640 people employed in each 1-digit ISCO-08 groups, we collect 52,558 data points regarding perceive potential of automation for 2,861 tasks. We then compare this input with a survey and several rounds of Delphi-style discussions among a smaller group of international experts. Based on this process, we create a repository of knowledge about task automation that goes beyond national specificities and use it to develop an AI assistant able to predict scores for tasks in the technical documentation of ISCO-08. Our 2025 scores are presented in a revised framework of four progressively increasing exposure gradients, with a new set of global estimates of employment shares exposed to GenAI. Clerical occupations continue to have the highest exposure levels. Additionally, some strongly digitized occupations have increased exposure, highlighting the expanding abilities of GenAI regarding specialized tasks in professional and technical roles. Globally, one in four workers are in an occupation with some GenAI exposure. 3.3% of global employment falls into the highest exposure category, albeit with significant differences between female (4.7%) and male employment (2.4%). These differences increase with countries’ income (9.6% female vs 3.5% male in Gradient 4in HICs), and so does the overall exposure (11% of total employment in LICs vs 34% in HICs). As most occupations consist of tasks that require human input, transformation of jobs is the most likely impact of GenAI. Linking our refined index with national micro data enables precise projections of such transformations, offering a foundation for social dialogue and targeted policy responses to manage the transition."

Abstract
"Despite initial research about the biases and perceptions of large language models (LLMs), we lack evidence on how LLMs evaluate occupations, especially in comparison to human evaluators. In this paper, we present a systematic comparison of occupational evaluations by GPT-4 with those from an in-depth, high-quality and recent human respondents survey in the UK. Covering the full ISCO-08 occupational landscape, with 580 occupations and two distinct metrics (prestige and social value), our findings indicate that GPT-4 and human scores are highly correlated across all ISCO-08 major groups. At the same time, GPT-4 substantially under- or overestimates the occupational prestige and social value of many occupations, particularly for emerging digital and stigmatized or illicit occupations. Our analyses show both the potential and risk of using LLM-generated data for sociological and occupational research. We also discuss the policy implications of our findings for the integration of LLM tools into the world of work." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, Published by arrangement with John Wiley & Sons) ((en))

Governing the Digital Transition: The Moderating Effect of Unemployment Benefits on Technology‐Induced Employment Outcomes (2025)

Golboyz, Mark (2025): Governing the Digital Transition: The Moderating Effect of Unemployment Benefits on Technology‐Induced Employment Outcomes. In: Social Inclusion, Jg. 13. DOI:10.17645/si.10114
Abstract
"The digital transition shapes work in numerous ways. For instance, by affecting employment structures. To ensure that the digital transition results in better employment opportunities in terms of socio-economic status, labor markets have to be guided appropriately. The European Pillar of Social Rights can be the political framework to foster access to employment and tackle inequalities that result from the digital transition. Current research primarily examines scenarios of occupational upgrading and employment polarisation. In the empirical literature, there is no consensus on which of these developments prevail. Findings vary between countries and across different study periods. Accordingly, this article provides a theoretical explanation for the conditions under which occupational upgrading and employment polarization become more likely. Further, this article examines how the use of information and communication technology (ICT) capital in the production of goods and services affects the socio-economic status of individuals and, more importantly, whether unemployment benefits moderate this effect. Methodologically, the article uses multilevel maximum likelihood regression models with an empirical focus on 12 European countries and 19 industries. The analysis is based on data from the European Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS), the European Union Level Analysis of Capital, Labour, Energy, Materials, and Service Inputs (EU-KLEMS) research project, and the Comparative Welfare Entitlements Project (CWEP). The results of the article indicate that generous unemployment benefits are associated with occupational upgrading. This implies that educational and vocational labor market policies need to be developed to prevent the under-skilled from being left behind and to enable these groups to benefit from the digital transition. Consequently, it is not only the extent to which work involves routine tasks or the skills of workers that determine how technological change affects employment, but also social rights shape employment through unemployment benefits."

Abstract
"This work aims at discussing some of the main (open) questions about the labour impact of AI technologies. First, we provide an in-depth literature review focusing on concepts and measurement approaches and distinguishing between up (invention and knowledge creation), mid (technological innovation and development) and downstream (adoption and diffusion) components of the AI value chain. Second, we summarise the six articles included in the Special Issue ‘AI and labor markets: opening the black box’, distinguishing between contributions focusing on AI exposure, occupations and skill demand; the relationship between AI and automation technologies and their impact on income distribution; and, finally, the effect on organisational structures, management practices, and power dynamics within workplaces. Our analysis emphasises that AI’s employment effects are neither predetermined nor uniform, but shaped by implementation contexts, organisational choices, and institutional frameworks. We find that heterogeneity matters at multiple levels—across countries, sectors, firms, and demographic groups—challenging deterministic narratives and highlighting the need for adaptive policy responses that recognise these asymmetries."

Abstract
"This study explores exposure to artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and employment patterns in Europe. First, we provide a thorough mapping of European regions focusing on the structural factors—such as sectoral specialisation, R&D capacity, productivity and workforce skills—that may shape diffusion as well as economic and employment effects of AI. To capture these differences, we conduct a cluster analysis which group EU regions in four distinct clusters: high-tech service and capital centres, advanced manufacturing core, southern and eastern periphery. We then discuss potential employment implications of AI in these regions, arguing that while regions with strong innovation systems may experience employment gains as AI complements existing capabilities and production systems, others are likely to face structural barriers that could eventually exacerbate regional disparities in the EU, with peripheral areas losing further ground."

Abstract
"This paper contributes to the growing research on AI's labor market impact by presenting novel evidence on the heterogeneous employment effects of AI across EU countries from 2012 to 2022. While concerns persist about AI's disruptive potential, our findings show that occupations more exposed to AI technologies experience stronger employment growth, all else being equal. However, these effects are not uniform across the EU. Positive employment outcomes are concentrated in Innovation Leaders (Belgium, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands and Sweden) and Strong Innovators (Austria, Cyprus, France, Germany, Ireland and Luxembourg), emphasizing the context-dependent nature of AI's impact. These findings reflect the uneven distribution of innovation capabilities, with a country's innovation system and ‘absorptive capacity’ playing a crucial role in fully harnessing AI's potential for employment (and economic) growth. Ultimately, this research challenges the notion of AI as universally beneficial or harmful, highlighting its asymmetric effects across countries and occupations."

Abstract
"This study conducts a meta-analysis to assess the effects of robotization on employment and wages, synthesizing the evidence from 33 studies (644 estimates) on employment and a subset of 19 studies (195 estimates) on wages. The results challenge the alarmist narrative about the risk of widespread technological unemployment, suggesting that the overall relationship between robotization and employment or wages is minimal. However, the effects are far from uniform, with adverse outcomes observed in specific contexts, such as the United States, manufacturing sectors, and middle-skilled occupations. The analysis also identifies a publication bias favoring negative wage effects, though correcting for this bias confirms the negligible impact of robotization." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
