Workforce DATA Act of 2023
This bill directs the Department of Labor to commission the National Academies to study how to measure automation's impact on jobs, including job creation, displacement, and shifting skills needs. It also requires establishing an advisory board with diverse stakeholders (labor, industry, academia) to recommend data sources and strategies for addressing automation's workforce effects. The study must be completed within 2 years, followed by a Bureau of Labor Statistics implementation plan within 1 year. The bill aims to improve data collection and policy responses to automation, focusing on worker demographics and economic consequences.
