Google announced today a new $50 million initiative to study and prepare “for the changing nature of work.” Recode reports the investments will begin in the US and Europe to help train job seekers and improve the working conditions for those already employed. Google.org directed $2 million to fund research on the “future of work,” including “ways to better anticipate and understand what the world’s fast-changing workforce will need in the years to come and how technology can help produce positive outcomes,” the company said in a blog post announcing the initiative.
