African American workers will have higher rates of job displacement than the general US population due to automation, according to a new report by the consultancy McKinsey.
“There is an elevated risk to the African American workforce to modernization, automation, and the global shift that exists in this modern economy,” McKinsey partner and report co-author Jason Wright tells Business Insider.
While 22% of all jobs in the total workforce will get “disrupted,” meaning either killed or replaced by lower-paying work, it’s 10% higher for the African American workforce. That means 4.5 million black jobs could be displaced by 2030 without any intervention, according to McKinsey.
