British economist Guy Standing, says the lower rungs in all the occupational groups are at risk, not just manufacturing, and a shakeup's needed.
Standing is Professor of Development Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London.
From August 2006 until January 2013, he was Professor of Economic Security at the University of Bath in the UK.
He is also a founder member and co-president of the Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN), a non-governmental organisation that promotes a citizenship income for all.
He talks to Kathryn Ryan.
