Description

An enormous amount of literature has emerged over the last few years in the context of the ‘Future of Work’. Academics, think tanks and policy makers have fuelled rich discussions about how the future of work might look like and how we can shape it. Indeed, labour markets in developing and developed countries are likely to undergo major transformations in the next years and decades. However, despite a growing body of research in this area, there exists no universally accepted definition of what exactly the ‘Future of Work’ encompasses and what the most relevant drivers are.
