- Articles and reports: 11F0019M2020015Description:
Recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine-learning technologies have fuelled fears of potential job losses among some workers. While the net impact of new technology on total jobs can be negative, positive or neutral, some workers may be more affected than others depending on how easily robots and algorithms can replace them, or how easily their skills complement the new technology. In the case of women and men, it is not clear who is likely to be most affected. This study estimates the risk of job transformation as a result of automation technology faced by women and men.

This new study on innovation and growth examines the determinants of innovation and confirms that innovation is a main factor contributing to labour productivity growth, gains in market share and survival in Canadian manufacturing plants.
Release date: 2004-10-29 - 4. Use and planned use of advanced technologies and advanced practices in the construction sector ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20000035762Geography: CanadaDescription:
The first survey of innovation, advanced technologies and practices in the Canadian construction sector was recently conducted. Of the five types of technologies listed in the survey, communications technologies have the highest percentage of use (46% of businesses). Of all the techonolgies, three computer-related technologies had the highest percentage of use : e-mail (38%), company computer networks (25%) and computer aided design (23%). The three advanced practices with the largest percentage of business using them, each with one third of businesses, are: design-build contracts, computerized inventory control and computerized estimating software.
