We provide comprehensive evidence on the consequences of automation risk on the career of unemployed workers and the mitigating role of labor market training. Using almost two decades of administrative data for Austria, we find that a higher risk of automation reduces the job finding probability; a problem which has increased over the past years. This development is associated with increasing re-employment wages and job stability. We also present new aspects of public training in times of technological progress. Provided training counteracts the negative impact of automation on the job finding probability. Its efficiency has declined over the past years, however.

我们就自动化风险对失业工人的职业生涯的影响以及劳动力市场培训的缓解作用提供了全面的证据。使用奥地利近 20 年的行政数据，我们发现更高的自动化风险降低了找工作的概率；一个在过去几年中增加的问题。这种发展与再就业工资和工作稳定性的增加有关。我们还介绍了技术进步时期公共培训的新方面。提供的培训抵消了自动化对求职概率的负面影响。然而，它的效率在过去几年有所下降。
