Abstract :
The world runs on automation, and work
environments in various industries around the world are
rapidly evolving. The fast developments in the
accounting industry throughout the decades appear to be
overpowering. To compete in a fast-paced environment
across many business sectors, human resources in every
firm must acquire specialised skill sets and adapt to
challenges and changes. Automation had accelerated the
pace of change in human existence and had a greater
impact on employment prospects. It is an undeniable fact
that automation has resulted in job losses in certain
industries. Several manual work situations have become
automated, which has displaced manual labour and
employment in large numbers. Among other things,
automation had resulted in greater job prospects. The
purpose of the study was to see how 'Robotic Process
Automation' (RPA) affects employment in India's
accounting industry. It also emphasises human resources
readiness with skills to meet the problems that come with
Automation and its Employment Impact.
The goal of this thesis is to determine how automation
is affecting the employability of Indian accountants. The
study examines the potential implications of automation in
the accounting industry, accounting skills, issues, and
hurdles to deploying automation in accounting, as well as
the benefits and challenges of automation. The thesis
summarises the results of a study of Indian professional
accountants to determine their willingness to adapt to new
problems, attitudes about automation, and willingness to
learn new skills.
The current thesis contributes to the development of
India's accounting workforce by providing opportunities for
them to obtain professional skills. Accounting organisations
in India, corporate leaders, and anybody who works in or
impacts accounting operations should evaluate the various
components of professional growth addressed in this paper.
The application of research findings may include
educational improvements, methodology revisions, and
national standards.
