For Low-Skilled Service Workers, the Pandemic May be the Least of Their Worries

As changes in the work and business world make some job industries obsolete, the risk of numerous people becoming jobless and fall into poverty is not only real but is happening right now. Workers in service and low-skilled industries need to take these steps to protect their futures and their loved ones.

San Bernardino, CA, March 25, 2021 --(PR.com)-- Millions of people's jobs were affected by the pandemic, lockdowns, and social distancing requirements. But that's not the biggest upheaval happening in the employment environment.

Pandemics and lockdowns are hopefully temporary. They'll go away. But something bigger is changing the work world and affecting millions of people's livelihoods.

The biggest issue: unlike the pandemic, it's not going away.

Many types of jobs are disappearing because of technology advancement, automation, machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Whole industries are being changed. The heaviest hit are in the service and low skilled industries that are easily replaced by robots, bots and apps.

As AI integrates society, a greater number of jobs are becoming obsolete. We've seen customer service jobs in the fast food industry be replaced by robots and self-service machines. The same is happening in supermarkets. These changes have put millions of people at risk of losing their livelihoods and throwing them into homelessness and poverty. What's more, many of these workers have no alternative skills or even know how to progress to a different career.

So what can you do to ensure you not only have a job but increase your salary too?

The answer is to upgrade your skills and make yourself so valuable that you are irreplaceable.

Upgrading skills to tech or office, management, or consulting skills allows you to get out of the diminishing industries that are being affected by world changes and AI. It also opens many doors for progress and advancement.

Upgrading skills is similar to opening a door. Once the door is open, many paths appear in the office administration / tech / self-employed areas.

From getting regular office jobs to creating and selling apps to providing VA, accounting, admin, or IT services from your home, the opportunities are many.

What is the effect of upgrading skills on your salary? While cashiers and waiters earn around $12 per hour on average, bookkeepers, office admins, and entry-level accountants earn around $20 - $30 per hour.

That's the potential to nearly doubling your hourly rate when you upgrade your skills.

More advanced skills and tech skills can result in a greater pay potential as well as higher demand.
