New Report from the World Economic Forum (WEF) Produced in Collaboration with the Dom Cabral Foundation (FDC) Shows That New Technologies and Sustainable Practices for the Green Transition and Technological Transformation Are Set to Generate More Than 69 Million Jobs Worldwide by 2027.

The study analyzed more than 673 million jobs across 45 economies and conducted opinion surveys with 803 companies from 27 different sectors, responsible for more than 11 million jobs.

Among the jobs that are expected to grow the most are artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning specialists, sustainability specialists, business intelligence analysts, and information security specialists. However, the sectors with the highest demand will be education, agriculture, and digital commerce.

Service areas, such as bank tellers, cashiers, and postal workers, as well as street vendors and door-to-door salespeople, will be the most affected, the study predicts. Overall, the study indicates a net reduction of 14 million jobs, or 2% of current employment, with the slowdown of the global economy and rising input and living costs cited as the main factors anticipated for the job losses.

In Brazil, Only 17% of the Workforce Holds a Higher Education or Vocational Degree, the Report Highlights

Among Brazilian organizations that adopt diversity and inclusion (D&I) programs, 81% prioritize training for their managers. The report also emphasizes the importance of investing in diversity and inclusion to establish attractive work environments, showing that 68% of Generation Z workers are dissatisfied with their organizations’ progress in creating a diverse and inclusive workplace.

For employers, 44% of workers’ skills will change in the next five years, and 60% of the current workforce will need training before 2027. The most important skills required for workers in 2023 are: analytical thinking, creativity, resilience, flexibility, agility, motivation and self-awareness, curiosity and continuous learning, technological literacy, empathy, active listening, leadership and social influence, and quality control.

The Study Indicates That Investments That Facilitate the Green Transition of Businesses, Implement ESG Standards, and Local Supply Chains Tend to Generate Significant Gains in Job Availability

In Brazil, the most sought-after positions among the organizations surveyed, with a positive net job balance, include: data analysts and scientists (31%), business development professionals (25%), operations managers (13%), and lawyers (13%).

Despite the challenges, the report highlights that there is an opportunity for companies to develop new skills and professionals and adopt more sustainable, inclusive, and innovative practices. Additionally, it is important for governments and businesses to work together to ensure a fair transition for workers and minimize the negative impacts of changes in the labor market.
