From the London Daily Mail:

British employees are deliberately sabotaging workplace robots over fears the machines will take their jobs, new study claims
UK workers are sabotaging and assaulting workplace robots in an attempt to stop them taking their jobs, finds study.

More on the study:

The study by De Montfort University in Leicester which looked into the use of robotics in healthcare concluded that UK workers are particularly apposed to the introduction of the intelligent machines into the work place.

Compared to Norway where the study found co-working robots are often given affectionate names and welcomed.

Jonathan Payne, Professor of Work, Employment and Skills, said: 'We heard stories of workers standing in the way of robots, and minor acts of sabotage - and not playing along with them.'
