The Impact of IT on the Labour Market: The Impact of Technological Developments on Human Resources Today

Abstract

The research aims to examine the interactions between human resources and technological factors, with a particular focus on the advantages and disadvantages of change. In recent years, the rapid pace of technological development has brought radical changes to traditional forms of work, as the automation of monotonous, unskilled tasks has become a reality. Examples such as self-driving cars, robots, augmented reality and 3D printing illustrate how technological innovations are making everyday life and work processes easier. Artificial intelligence also has a prominent role to play, helping in a number of areas such as decision support and automated communication. However, this development also poses new challenges for the labour market, as new jobs requiring specific skills emerge while some positions disappear. The labour market has become dynamic and therefore turnover and demand can change significantly. Technological change can have negative as well as positive consequences, as many people fear uncertainty and redundant workers find it difficult to find their place in society. The research aims to raise awareness of these challenges and to present solutions that can help improve the relationship between technology and human resources. The interest in automation inspired the choice of topic, and the research will analyse trends and future opportunities in the modern labour market based on the experience gained through a questionnaire survey.
