Automation is rapidly transforming industries across California, disproportionately affecting Latino workers who are overrepresented in occupations such as agriculture, trucking, construction, and food service. These changes raise critical questions about job security, economic mobility, and the role of policy in ensuring an equitable transition for Latino workers in a digital economy. Join the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (LPPI) on Thursday, April 10, for a webinar discussing the findings of our new report, On the Frontlines: Automation Risks for Latino Workers in California. The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion on workforce development strategies and policy solutions. Experts from the labor, education, policy, and career training sectors will share insights on addressing economic challenges and opportunities posed by automation and engage in a live Q&A session with attendees.
