The labour market organisations encourage employers and employees to jointly ensure that workplaces have the competence and drive to make the most of digitalisation. Successful utilisation of digitalisation can bring about significant improvements in terms of productivity, private and public services, the activities of the work community and well-being at work. Over the coming years and decades, some traditional work tasks will disappear or be handled in other ways. At the same time, however, the changes will give rise to new tasks, overall task areas and professions. It is important for workplaces to face this trend head on in a very prepared and systematic manner.
For the use of decision-makers and those involved in the development of working life, the labour market confederations also published a shared stance on the measures required for the promotion of digitalisation. Their viewpoint emphasises collaboration, investments in learning, safeguarding against excessive work tasks, ethical rules concerning algorithms and the utilisation of the potential presented by digitalisation.
