What does this mean for workers? Schaeffler's move touches 1 job, which employs about 1.4 million people in the U.S. For team assemblers, AI and robots already touch about 19m 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.
