Given the significance of employment in the economy, considering the impact of Inofrmation and Communication Technology upon this variable is of utmost importance. The importance of the information and communication technology emerges from its ability to change the system of employment in a society.
This article focuses on measuring the ICT impact upon employment using the constant elasticity of substitution CES production function and cross-section data in the year 2009. The results reveal the negative impact of information and communication technology on employment, meaning that the increased use of information and communication technology in the provinces will reduce employment levels. The other results of this study can also highlight the negative impact of the capital stock per capita and the positive of GDP on employment.
