Global challenges- Global solutions

In today’s world of work the only certainty is change. The future of work is being shaped by globalization, digitalization, climate change and demographic shifts that impact labour markets worldwide. While these trends provide opportunities for the creation of new jobs, they also come with challenges, including the risk of deteriorating working conditions, further labour market disaggregation and difficult transitions for workers as well as a lack of capacity to profit from job creation. While these changes were compounded by the COVID pandemic leading to great upheaval in our lives, they also provide opportunities for moving towards a better tomorrow.

This Employment podcast series focuses attention on the impact of megatrends on labour markets worldwide and the emerging challenges and opportunities. They offer a human-centred approach to policymaking that help shift economies to a new and better future of work.
