Measuring Digital Labour Market Transitions with a Digital Semantic Score: An AI-Based Methodology Applied to the Dutch Labour Market
Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →The paper presents an AI-based methodology that uses embedding-based similarity search and large language model classification to map Dutch job profiles to harmonised ESCO occupations. It introduces a Digital Semantic Score, which quantifies the association of job titles and skills with digital concepts relative to a non-digital reference, moving beyond keyword-based approaches. The study finds that digitalisation is unevenly distributed across occupations, with managerial, professional, and ICT roles showing the strongest digital language, while career-transition and skill analyses reveal pathway-dependent movement toward digital work and a multidimensional nature of digital capability.
