danube@work: Digitisation and Work

According to WIFO, it is essential in such an environment to have a bundle of formal qualifications, competences and skills that distinguish human labour from robots or programmed algorithms. To achieve this, the basic skills required for initial training in reading, arithmetic and writing must be sufficient. At the same time, maintaining employability also requires an effective system of initial and continuing training for adults.
