According to a Japanese industry body, the Machine Industry Memorial Foundation, by 2025, the labour shortage could be solved by using robots, for over 3.5 million jobs.

Below is a breakdown for some of the jobs that could be taken by robots:

  • Medical and nursing care services – 970,000 jobs
  • Agriculture and forestry sector – 450,000 jobs
  • Cleaning and delivery – 1,410,000 jobs

It’s estimated that robots could free up to 74 minutes of time for families that use them, each day, something that could help more women to enter the labor market.

Out of the 4.2 million job shortage that is projected to be in 2025, 80% or 3.5 million jobs could be taken by robots.
