Abstract

Technology is reshaping the occupational landscape. Technological adoption has accelerated in the last few years with the increasing use of robots and automation. However, only a few pieces of literature are available that discuss how robotization and automation would change the world of work. In India, hardly any empirical research discusses the risk of robots and automation in occupations. The article estimates the industrial robot density in the manufacturing sector in India for the period 2011–2012 to 2020–2021. It also observes the workforce distribution changes by industry and occupation for the same period. Further combining the O*Net data with the Employment and Unemployment Survey data and Periodic Labour Force Survey for 2011–2012 and 2020–2021, respectively, constructs the composite index of risk of automation (RoA). The RoA index scores reveal that between 2011–2012 and 2020–2021, the automation risk in all jobs in India has increased and the risk intensity varies across occupations and industries.

自动化和机器人化会影响印度的职业吗？实证研究

技术正在重塑职业格局。在过去几年里，随着机器人和自动化的使用越来越多，技术应用的速度也在加快。然而，只有少数文献讨论了机器人化和自动化将如何改变工作世界。在印度，几乎没有任何实证研究讨论机器人和自动化在职业中的风险。文章估算了 2011-2012 年至 2020-2021 年期间印度制造业的工业机器人密度。文章还观察了同期各行业和职业的劳动力分布变化。将 O*Net 数据与 2011-2012 年和 2020-2021 年的就业与失业调查数据和定期劳动力调查数据进一步结合，构建了自动化风险（RoA）综合指数。自动化风险指数得分显示，在 2011-2012 年和 2020-2021 年期间，印度所有工作的自动化风险都在增加，不同职业和行业的风险强度各不相同。

期刊介绍： Millennial Asia: An International Journal of Asian Studies is a multidisciplinary, refereed biannual journal of the Association of Asia Scholars (AAS)–an association of the alumni of the Asian Scholarship Foundation (ASF). It aims to encourage multifaceted, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on Asia, in order to understand its fast changing context as a growth pole of global economy. By providing a forum for Asian scholars situated globally, it promotes dialogue between the global academic community, civil society and policy makers on Asian issues. The journal examines Asia on a regional and comparative basis, emphasizing patterns and tendencies that go beyond national borders and are globally relevant. Modern and contemporary Asia has witnessed dynamic transformations in cultures, societies, economies and political institutions, among others. It confronts issues of collective identity formation, ecological crisis, rapid economic change and resurgence of religion and communal identifies while embracing globalization. An analysis of past experiences can help produce a deeper understanding of contemporary change. In particular, the journal is interested in locating contemporary changes within a historical perspective, through the use of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches. This way, it hopes to promote comparative studies involving Asia’s various regions. The journal brings out both thematic and general issues and the thrust areas are: Asian integration, Asian economies, sociology, culture, politics, governance, security, development issues, arts and literature and any other such issue as the editorial board may deem fit. The core fields include development encompassing agriculture, industry, regional trade, social sectors like health and education and development policy across the region and in specific countries in a comparative perspective.
