“These jobs are skewed more towards higher-paying roles due to growth in higher-wage global digital jobs, decline in lower-wage global digital jobs, and the new global digital jobs being exclusively high- and middle-income roles,” the paper read.
Best jobs for digital
The paper said 218 job types out of 5,400 are conducive to becoming digital jobs.
These jobs represent a total of 73 million workers out of the 820 million total global workers who are represented by the International Labour Organisation’s occupational employment statistics.
Among these job types, 40% are in accounting, as well as legal and finance roles, according to the paper. Customer service representatives, marketing, advertising and communication professionals, as well as IT professionals each make up around 10% of total jobs.
