What does this mean for workers? DEWALT's move touches 1 job, which employs about 1.1 million people in the U.S. For construction laborers, AI and robots already touch about 1h 35m 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.

A pilot is a limited test, often at a few sites, that may or may not expand.
