The Skills Imperative 2035 is a five-year research programme which aims to help government, business, and other stakeholders address future skills shortages by identifying the skills that will be most vital across the labour market, estimating future gaps in these skills, examining the determinants of skill development, and identifying the groups most at risk of changes in employment and skills requirements between now and 2035. This working paper utilises 2035 employment and skills projections from National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER), together with the results of NFER's Essential Employment Skills Survey, to further examine the impact of anticipated changes in employment and skills requirements on the people already in the labour market. The report identifies the groups most at risk of being displaced by technology and considers how they can make transitions into growing occupations, either from an existing job or after becoming unemployed. Also examined are the transitions workers in these occupations have typically made in the labour market recently and the barriers that might prevent them successfully transitioning into growing occupations in future are explored. The report also identifies the factors strongly associated with recent, successful transitions out of 'high-risk' occupations.
