The way we work, and our societies more broadly, are undergoing fundamental transformations in a context of globalisation, demographic changes, and the rapid advance of technologies.

The COVID-19 crisis has accelerated the journey towards digitalisation forcing companies to adapt the skills of their workforces to ensure they can keep up with technological developments and a changing labour market. While the health crisis has deepened some challenges in the labour market, new opportunities present themselves for growth and job creation.

An inclusive digital economy, increased investment, better active labour market policies and making sure nobody is left behind are examples of how to move forward.
