Cleaners and domestics sits in the very low exposure band: its abilities overlap with current AI applications more than about 2% of the 365 UK occupations the Department for Education scored. Lower exposure usually means more of the work depends on physical, practical or in-person abilities that current AI applications do not cover well. It does not mean the job will be untouched by technology.
Underlying scores: AIOE (all AI) -1.74, LLM exposure -1.24 (standardised; 0 is the average occupation). Skill level: Level 1. Pay and job counts are 2020 figures, so use them to compare occupations rather than as current salaries.
