"This report presents 12 job profiles exemplifying a variety of occupations for which developments in ICT and its use have led to substantial changes in the work tasks and the skills needed to carry out the job. The 12 job profiles include dairy farmer, machine operator, industrial designer, building electrician, transport clerk, car mechanic, police detective, VET teacher, property caretaker, doctor in a hospital, animator and desktop publisher. The job profiles selected for the job profiling do not focus on “office” occupations where the penetration of ICT is already high. Instead, the job profiles represent occupations in sectors such as the primary sector, construction, transport and storage, education and service jobs such as VET-teacher, property manager and doctor at a hospital, which are not office-based."
