Randstad Survey Finds Gen Z Most Concerned About AI Impact on Jobs Globally

A Randstad survey of 27,000 workers and 1,225 employers across 35 markets found that four in five workers expect artificial intelligence to affect their daily tasks, with Gen Z expressing the most concern about job security amid rising AI and automation use. Job postings requiring AI skills surged 1,587%, reflecting a shift toward automation of low-complexity roles. While employees show enthusiasm for AI, many are skeptical about its impact, fearing companies may benefit more than workers. Baby Boomers appear less worried and more confident in adapting.
