The use of computers and the Internet in workplaces will become more pervasive and the functions performed using computers will dramatically increase. The influence of technology will go beyond new equipment and faster communications, as work and skills will be redefined and reorganized.

Increased global competition will continue to affect the type of work being done in ALL work-places, creating new high-skilled jobs and lessening demand for low-skilled work. The impact of globalization on everyone will continue to grow as more of the economy is involved in producing exports or competing with imports.
