Research indicates that people will lose a lot of jobs from
automated robots that come to work instead of workers.
In particular, the report of the "McKinsey Global
Research Bureau" indicates that there will be more than 800 million people
during the year 2016-2030, or about one fifth of the labor market that has to
be unemployed because the robot came to work instead of workers and workers
need to practice new skills to perform more automatic machine control tasks. But
the implementation of the robot system in the economic system may pressure the
average wages to drop by at least 0.5%
The International Labor Organization (ILO) estimates that in
the next two decades advancements in robotics technology and artificial intelligence
will affect the tremendous changes in job positions, employment and various
businesses. In Thailand, the ILO estimates that 44 percent of employment (over
17 million positions) in Thailand faces a high risk of being replaced by
automation, especially in the textile industry, clothing, footwear, automotive
and automotive parts, electrical and electronic equipment, food processing
industry, counter staff and employees in various branch networks, which the
branch network may close due to the increase in online transactions.
Global workers, governments, employers, employees, related
people must turn to the interest in formulating a strategy to plan to cope with
such conditions, must have design new economic system to support these changes,
to cause fairness, to create a labor system and market system that is fair to all parties without
hindering the progress of innovation.
In the future world will only be born with new positions and
professions that are not driven by the 4th Industrial Revolution, but also with
factors not related to technology such as demographic pressures, geopolitical
change, and changes in social customs and new culture as well
Today, we cannot accurately predict what these things will
be in the future. But it can be believed that talent is an important production
factor, not capital. Therefore, the shortage of skilled workers is likely to be
a limitation that undermines innovation, competition and growth rather than
having capital, causing the job market to become increasingly divided into low
skills, low wages and high skills, high wages, or as Martin Ford, a software
program entrepreneur at Silicon Valley, predicts that the excavation of the
pyramid's skills to make it hollow will increase inequality and social tension,
except to be prepared from now.
Due to the "Thailand 4.0" economic development
plan, focusing on the ability to compete fully. At the same time, it wants the society to be
stable, prosperous and sustainable by adhering to the philosophy of sufficiency
economy with the Middle Path, or "Majjimapatipada" in Buddhism as a
practice.
In Buddhism as a practice Three balanced theory Or the
theory of balance, production, balance, consumption and balance, benefits
arising from production and consumption That was developed from the Dharma of
Siam is a natural law that surpasses all laws that arise during research to
solve problems caused by popular consumer societies
An important principle is to define the relationship between
the manufacturer and the new consumer, by providing consumers or customers as
assets of the manufacturer. Or looking at another angle that consumers or
customers are accumulating the wealth of the manufacturer and change the
marketing budget of the manufacturer to be a budget to create wealth for
consumers in three areas: public health, education, and occupation or
employment, and then encourage consumers to support the manufacturer by using
the products of the manufacturer in return according to the principles of 6
Directions in Buddhism, and therefore, the production and use of the robot of
the manufacturer must not create a negative impact on consumers.
For this reason, the researcher is interested in whether
this principle or plan can solve problems that will cause many people to lose
their jobs or not, from focusing on the competition of entrepreneurs until
turning to mechanical equipment, especially robots, instead of human labor
Therefore, research on "The Use of Robots That Do Not
Compete for Human Work in Thailand 4.0 according to the Buddhist Guidelines"
to prove that such principles can strengthen the development plan
"Thailand 4.0"
When the machines that work on a daily basis are more and
more predictable, workers who have to try to adapt will encounter challenges
like never before in the past. Automation technology that usually works only on
one side is therefore transformed the employment sector by industry and workers
can change to work in emerging industries.
But the situation that is happening today is very different,
because information technology is a multi-functional technology, and will
actually affect in everywhere and almost every industry will reduce manual
labor, while emerging industries will use labor-saving technology from the
beginning.
