IT use leads to workers being more productive and greater degrees of employment for both skilled and unskilled workers, though the ratio of skilled to unskilled labour increases with IT use. Most importantly, IT using companies pay more to workers and employees for lesser hours of work, i.e., the quality of jobs is bettered with IT use. One important conjecture we could make is that IT could be perceived as a substitute for lack of resources and physical connectivity to markets.
