The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Define and manage skills taxonomy is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: Without child occupation data, the evaluation relies on the process name and description. 'Analyzing', 'classifying', and 'organizing' skill requirements are purely cognitive, information-processing tasks. This taxonomy work is executed remotely via databases and HR software, placing it firmly in the digital band.
