Direct answer

Exposure is not replacement probability

The Freight Handler role is not fully AI-proof. Its baseline suggests that a substantial share of the work is reachable by current AI, while human accountability, context and relationships can still protect important tasks. The 82/100 figure is an occupation-level starting point. It does not mean that 82% of workers will lose their jobs or that 82% of the role will certainly disappear.

Why your result may differ

A title cannot describe the whole job

Two people called Freight Handler may have different exposure. Routine digital inputs and repeatable rules raise automation pressure. Accountability, trust, unusual cases, physical presence and senior decision-making generally raise resilience. The personal assessment adjusts this baseline around those factors.
