How this score is calculated

The composite Robot Impact Score weights task-automation research (35%, the Oxford Frey and Osborne score), IFR robot deployment figures (30%), an academic-consensus score (20%, the average of the Oxford score and the OECD risk band), and robot density for the role (15%). The O*NET-SOC code is a cross-reference, not a scoring input. Scores describe occupation-level exposure and are estimates, not forecasts.
