But the amount of workers will only stay the same if demand grows at the same rate as the production output.

Well, the price goes down, or/end the salaries go up, or resources are freed for new investments…

Only in the last case there is a chance that the amount of jobs will remain the same, the other cases will lead to lost jobs.

Prices going down leads to increased demand and expansion. Salaries (everywhere) going up lead to increased demand and expansion.
