In recent years, the increasing concern about the labour market implications of technological change has led economists to look in more detail at the structure of work content and job tasks. Incorporating insights from other traditions of task analysis, in particular from the labour process approach, as well as from recent research on skills, work organisation and occupational change, in this paper we propose a comprehensive and detailed taxonomy of tasks. Going beyond existing broad classifications, our taxonomy aims at connecting the substantive content of work with its organisational context by answering two key questions: what do people do at work and how do they do their work? For illustrative purposes, we show how our approach allows a better understanding of the impact of new technologies on work, by accounting for relevant ongoing transformations such as the diffusion of artificial intelligence and the unfolding of digital labour platforms.

近年来，对技术变革对劳动力市场影响的日益关注促使经济学家更详细地研究工作内容和工作任务的结构。结合其他任务分析传统的见解，特别是劳动过程方法，以及最近对技能、工作组织和职业变化的研究，我们在本文中提出了一个全面而详细的任务分类法。超越现有的广泛分类，我们的分类旨在通过回答两个关键问题将工作的实质性内容与其组织环境联系起来：人们在工作中做什么以及他们如何工作？出于说明目的，我们展示了我们的方法如何更好地理解新技术对工作的影响，
