How Digital Technology Affects Working Conditions in Globally Fragmented Production Chains: Evidence from Europe

This paper uses a sample of over 9.5 million workers from 22 European countries to study the intertwined effects of digital technology and cross-border production links on workers’ wellbeing. We compare the social effects of technological change exhibited by three types of innovation: computerisation (software), automation (robots) and artificial intelligence (AI).
