An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was adopted, combining qua…
AI adoption was associated with significant employment declines in manufacturing and administrative services, and displaced workers reported 26.7% lower income and transitions lasting 16.8 months.
The survey data cover January 2021 to June 2022, and the regression results describe associations with AI adoption rather than established causation.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2027 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
