We use two United Kingdom panel data sets to investigate skill‐upgrading in the United Kingdom and how it has been affected by computerisation. Census data reveals that most aggregate skill‐upgrading is explained by within‐establishment rises in skill composition. Such upgrading is significantly related to computerisation, a relation that is robust to different worker and computer types, endogeneity, human capital upgrading and other technology measures
