World Bank urges crisis-era job support as IMF warns of AI tsunami

Original: World Bank jobs council urges 'crisis-era' employment support measures as IMF warns of AI ‘tsunami’

A World Bank jobs council is calling for crisis-level employment support measures, warning that workers need stronger protections as artificial intelligence reshapes labour markets. The appeal comes alongside an International Monetary Fund warning that AI could hit jobs like a 'tsunami', with both institutions urging governments to act now on retraining, safety nets and employment policy.

Why now: New warnings from two major global institutions about AI's disruptive impact on jobs have put employment policy back in the spotlight.
