What does rising income inequality mean for the future of work?
Workers at the mid-to-lower end of the economic spectrum are both more likely to hold jobs at high risk of being replaced by technology and are less likely to have the resources needed for training and upskilling. Wages for low- to moderate-income workers in the U.S. have been stagnating and failing to keep up with rising costs of living for decades. The gains from increased worker productivity have accrued at the top, leaving most workers with narrower and decreasing margins to save and get by. Without change, some of today’s workers will be left behind, exacerbating existing wealth disparities and creating new challenges for future generations.

We hope you will join us on this learning journey as we engage in thoughtful dialogue and conversation to better understand how income inequality is impacting the way we work now and in the future.
