The Pissarides Review into the Future of Work and Wellbeing: final report - executive summary

The Pissarides Review is a three-year, multi-disciplinary research programme which has interrogated the impacts of technological change on people and places across the country. It has been funded by the Nuffield Foundation, hosted by the Institute for the Future of Work, and delivered in partnership with UK universities, including Imperial College London, the London School of Economics, Warwick Business School, and University College London. The Review has produced groundbreaking insight into topics related to the impact of technology on work, people and society, including the impact of AI on worker wellbeing, firm-level AI adoption case studies, the UK’s first Disruption Index, and several reports on skills, such as how skills are changing in the UK labour market and a report focused on analysing patterns of skills in the UK which is based on an AI-enabled clustering analysis of 60M UK job adverts. This Executive Summary complements the full report that we have produced, which has full details of the research we undertook, plus comprehensive chapters introducing both the basis for the research, and the detailed policy work that has come from it.
