Abstrakt: This thesis examines the impact of technological advancements on employment and wages in European Union. In order to examine this relation the date set for period over 1990-2010 of 10 European Member states were used. The data represented statistical information for Austria, Germany, France , Finland, Spain, Denmark, Netherlands, Ireland , Italy and the United Kingdom. With the help of regression it was concluded there is significant relation of employment and wages with technological advancements. I use the R&D expenditures share of GDP as main proxy for technological advancements, unemployment rate and average wage for dependent variable. Using the Fixed Effects estimator, I found that there is negative relation between R&D expenditures and Unemployment rate. Similarly, I found that there is negative relation between R&D expenditures and Average Wages. Thus , I discuss possible explanation for this paradox.
