Technological changes and the decline of routine middle skilled jobs have led to workplaces being increasingly sorted by low- and high-skilled occupations. I investigate the political effects of this structural shift using Swedish population-wide administrative data combined with a representative election survey – an empirical approach that links survey respondents to their colleagues. The preliminary findings show that the share of highly educated individuals in the workplace is positively associated with pro-immigration preferences and conservative economic preferences. I argue that these patterns are driven by a change in the information that prevails at work, rather than by strengthened political identities. The results suggest that workplaces strengthen electoral differences between core constituencies in the transition to knowledge economies.
