How multiple machine tool setters, operators, and tenders, metal and plastic are reshaped as AGI capability advances.

Only about 15% of Multiple Machine Tool Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: While the tools include IT software (segment 43) like ERP systems and AutoCAD for CNC operations, the core of the role is rooted in physical production. Work context scores strongly emphasize hands-on labor, highlighting 'Wear Common Protective or Safety Equipment' (4.96), 'Spend Time Standing' (4.36), and 'Spend Time Using Your Hands' (4.24). Top work activities like 'Controlling Machines and Processes' (4.37) and 'Handling and Moving Objects' (4.18) place this occupation firmly in the physical band.
