What does this mean for workers? AECOM's move touches 2 jobs, which together employ about 419,000 people in the U.S. Across them, AI and robots already touch between 27m (architectural and engineering managers) and 40m (electrical engineers) of a typical 8-hour shift. A single company's move is an early signal for these jobs, and the time cards show how far the change has spread nationally.
Announced means the company said it would do this; nothing is running yet.
