ILO's model estimates that roughly a quarter of global employment is in occupations with some generative-AI exposure. It combines task data, worker and expert assessments and model predictions into four exposure levels. Administrative work is particularly exposed, while continued human contributions make job transformation more likely than full automation in the report's assessment.

What the material does not establish

Exposure is technical potential, not actual adoption or the probability of losing a job. Initial task assessments use Poland's occupational classification before mapping to international groups. Local roles require their own reviewed task analysis. Source: International Labour Organization, 2025-05-20
