Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming a big part of modern workplaces, and many employees believe it will soon change how they work. According to a recent survey by Randstad, nearly 80% of employees expect AI to impact their daily tasks in one way or another.
The survey covered 27,000 workers and 1,225 employers across different countries. In its annual Workmonitor report, Randstad found that Gen Z employees are the most worried about AI and its effect on jobs.
Many young workers fear that AI could replace roles, reduce opportunities, or demand new skills they are still learning.
On the other hand, Baby Boomers are the least concerned. The report says older employees feel more confident about adapting to changes brought by AI. Their experience and job security make them feel better prepared to handle new technologies.
The report also highlights how fast AI-related skills are gaining importance. Job openings that mention “AI agent” skills have increased by a massive 1,587%, showing how quickly companies are looking for workers who understand AI tools.
Experts say this shift makes learning new skills very important, especially for younger employees. While AI may create anxiety, it is also opening up new job roles and career paths. Those who upskill and adapt early may benefit the most in the changing workplace.
