It does not mean that 57% of workers will lose their jobs or that 57% of the role will certainly disappear.

Why your result may differ
A title cannot describe the whole job
Two people called Structural Metal Preparers and Erectors may have different exposure. Routine digital inputs and repeatable rules raise automation pressure. Accountability, trust, unusual cases, physical presence and senior decision-making generally raise resilience. The personal assessment adjusts this baseline around those factors.
Baseline inputs come from the site's compiled occupation dataset. Scores are editorial planning indicators, not official labour-market forecasts. See the methodology, formulas and limitations.
