THE WORK ECOSYSTEM: SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY DIVERSITY AND THE VALUE OF OCCUPATIONS

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

This study examines the effects of software technology diversity on the value of occupations measured by wages. Two forms of technology diversity are examined — technology separation and technology disparity. Technology separation refers to the span of the function of the technologies in an occupation. Technology disparity is the distribution of technology categories in an occupation. Our results show that technology separation is negatively associated with wages while technology disparity is positively associated with wages. This study expands our understanding of the effects of technology on the future of work and has implications for the development of skills and career trajectories.
