About
Enrico Tundis is a leading researcher in labor economics and the future of work, with a sharp focus on the intersection of automation, technological change, and employment dynamics. His work is distinguished by an innovative, activity-based approach that moves beyond traditional occupation-level analysis to understand how robots reshape the tasks workers perform. In his highly cited 2024 study, "What workers and robots do," Tundis provides granular, novel evidence on how local exposure to robots altered Italian employment between 2011 and 2018, revealing nuanced shifts across new activity-based occupational groups. This builds on his earlier influential 2021 paper, "Stop Worrying and Love the Robot," which established his methodological framework for assessing robotization’s impact on employment. With over 13 combined citations in top field journals, Tundis’s work is pivotal for policymakers and scholars seeking to understand the real-world, local effects of automation. His research not only quantifies disruption but also identifies opportunities, making him a vital voice in debates on the future of labor, skills, and regional economic resilience.
