How is business process automation changing the workplace?

According to Zapier’s The 2021 state of business automation report, averagely as many as 94% of employees perform repetitive, time-consuming tasks.

Wanting to avoid the negative effects associated with the routine nature of job duties, it is necessary to avoid monotony of tasks as much as possible, and provide employees an opportunity to develop themselves, regardless of their position. However, is it possible for a company to maintain its productivity while relieving the burden on employees? Absolutely yes.
