“…Aydın (2018) concludes that the technological progress has positive impact on employment of higher education graduates over the period 1981-2015. Kılıçaslan and Töngür (2019) find that the ICT has employment-enhancing impacts for the manufacturing sector for the period 2003-2013. Moreover, the impact of tangible ICT capital on employment creation is stronger than that of intangible ICT capital in the medium and low technology industries.…”

“…The main aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of technology on employment at regional level for Turkey. For the aim, the dynamic labor demand model is considered (Van Reenen, 1997;Piva & Vivarelli, 2004;Meschi, Taymaz & Vivarelli, 2011;Lachenmaier & Rottmann, 2011;Bogliacino, Piva & Vivarelli, 2012;Piva & Vivarelli, 2018;Kılıçaslan & Töngür, 2019). This model is adjusted at regional level for Turkey.…”

Technology has rapidly improved across the world. It has frequently been discussed whether technology creates employment in the literature. There are two different views on this issue. The first is the labor-friendly view that alleges technological innovation creates new job-area. The second is the labor-saving view that asserts technology substitutes capital to labor. This paper analyzes the impact of technology on employment at regional level for Turkey. The dataset covers over the period 2010-2017 for 12 regions at NUTS-I level. According to the results of the system GMM estimation, there is a remarkable nexus between R&D expenditure and overall, man employment, employment of higher education graduates, unlike woman employment. However, the nexus is the inversed U-shape and is clearer in employment of higher education graduates.

“…Shifting from manual labour to mechanical work through ICT would widen opportunities to expand their product and service markets. Investing in technologies such as machinery would cost a great amount of expense for the company (Kılıçaslan & Töngür, 2018). In the study of Roy et al (2017), the positive impact of innovation on employment holds true for high-tech manufacturing sectors.…”

“…From this, it can be inferred that investing in ICT infrastructure in the service sector is a great help in increasing employment since more than 50% of the GDP comes from this sector. This can also be justified by the study of Kılıçaslan and Töngür (2018) and Vermeulen et al (2018) that improvement and expansion of the firms due to large profits requires investment in capital and labor hence an increase in job opportunities.…”

Various studies have been conducted among different countries to determine the relationship of ICT on productivity and employment, but the results vary among industries and firms. This research aims to examine the impact of ICT on the service sector productivity and employment in the Philippines through quantitative research methods. Findings on the relationship between ICT and Productivity show that all the independent variables have a linear relationship on the dependent variable while the findings on the relationship of ICT and Employment, only Labor Force Participation Rate shows a nonlinear relationship to the dependent variable. The researchers ought to impart knowledge about the opportunities and threats brought by ICT, which may guide the policymakers who formulate policies regarding the advancements brought by ICT.

The direct and moderating impact of digitalization on the gender gap in the labor force participation rate is explored in this study. By analyzing the panel data of the G20 countries for the period of 2006–2021, we find that (1) the rising level of digitalization tends to narrow the gender gap in the labor force participation rate, with a greater gender gap‐narrowing effect in high‐income countries than in upper‐middle and lower‐middle income countries. (2) The interaction between digitalization and globalization has a small impact on the gender gap in the labor force participation rate in the full sample of the G20 countries, but the results are significantly different in countries divided by income level: the interaction is more likely to narrow the gender gap in the high‐income countries but widen the gender gap in upper‐middle and lower‐middle income countries. The gender gap‐widening effect is greater in upper‐middle income than in lower‐middle income countries. (3) Digitalization is more likely to increase the female employment rate and reduce the female unemployment rate, while it has the opposite effect on males; the female employment improvement effect is observed in the services sector.
