SOME FACTORS AFFECTING HEALTH MANPOWER ARE (1) DEVELOPMENTS IN DIAGNOSIS AND PATIENT CARE, INCLUDING AUTOMATED CLINICAL LABORATORY EQUIPMENT, IMPROVED SURGICAL TECHNIQUES AND EQUIPMENT, AND THE USE OF THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER IN DIAGNOSIS,(2) HOSPITAL INFORMATION HANDLING, ESPECIALLY THE APPLICATION OF THE ELECTRONIC COMPUTER, (3) IMPROVEMENT IN HOSPITAL SUPPLIES AND SERVICES, INCLUDING THE USE OF DISPOSABLE iTEMS AND IMPROVED MATERIALS HANDLING EQUIPMENT, AND (4) IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANAGEMENT AND STRUCTURAL DESIGN OF HEALTH FACILITIES FOR BETTER UTILIZATION OF PERSONNEL, EQUIPMENT, AND SPACE. IN GENERAL, CHANGING TECHNOLOGY WILL AFFECT HEALTH MANPOWER GRADUALLY. LABORSAVING INNOVATIONS WILL PROBABLY NEITHER CAUSE WORKERS TO LOSE THEIR JOBS NOR ALLEVIATE HEALTH MANPOWER SHORTAGES. CONTENT OF HEALTH JOBS WILL CHANGE, AND NEW JOBS WILL APPEAR AS NEW EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES ARE INTRCDUCED, BUT THE DEMANDS FOR WORKERS WITH NEW SKILLS WILL PROBABLY NOT OUTSTRIP THE CAPACITY FOR TRAINING THEM UNDER WIDELY RECOMMENDED LONG-RANGE PLANS. ANTICIPATED EMPLOYMENT GROWTH FROM 1965 TO 1975 IS 75 PERCENT FOR X -RAY TECHNICIANS, 60 PERCENT FOR MEDICAL LABORATORY PERSONNEL, 55 PERCENT FOR REHABILITATION AND OTHER TECHNICIANS, AND MORE THAN 40 PERCENT FOR NURSING PERSONNEL. RECOMMENDED ARE THE REMOVAL OF WAGE AND EMPLOYMENT CONDITION INEQUITIES TO ATTRACT ALREADY QUALIFIED PERSONS BACK TO EMPLOYMENT, THE EXPANSION Cf GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE TRAINING PROGRAMS, AND BETTER COORDINATION BETWEEN GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE AGENCIES IN DEALING WITH HEALTH MANPOWER SHORTAGES.

Technology and Manpower In The HEALTH SERVICE INDUSTRY 1965-75 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR: W. Willard Wirtz, Secretary MANPOWER ADMINISTRATION Preface Technological change has brought about vast changes in the social and economic structure of the United States.Of significant importance for more than a century, the influence of technology has been especially noticeable in the last two decades. Technological advances made during World War II established the foundation for many entirely new products and industries. More recently, Government military and space research expenditures, combined with greatly increased industrial spending for research and development, have produced an abundance of technological advancements which promise to have an even greater influence on our economy. Technological change has important effects on the labor force.Existing occupations are eliminated, others decline in importance; totally new occupations come into existence, job content changes, and new skills are required.Although a wide variety of mechanisms are available to facilitate manpower adjustment to technological change, planning lies at the core of each.The U.S. Department of Labor has for many years recognized in its research programs the need for advanced information on the potential impact of technology. Early in 1965, an experimental and demonstration project was launched within the Department of Labor as part of the Department's continuing efforts to refine and improve its research methods. The project was aimed at using interpretive analysis techniques, based on extensive industry inter- views, to fill gaps in facts and judgments needed for planning manpower development efforts by industry, union, and school systems and for program and policy development within the Department of Labor.Three industries and functional areas in which technology is expected to have important manpower effects were selected and studied in depth.They are: The health service industry (covered in this report) ; the design/drafting process (see Technology and Manpawer in Design and Drafting, 1965-75) ; and the telephone communications industry (see Technology and Manpower in the Telephone Industry, 1965-75). This report was prepared by Herman M. Sturm under the supervision of Peter E. Haase, project director, and under the general direction of Curtis C. Al ler, director, Office of Manpower Policy, Evaluation, and Research.
