Defining Work Tools: Studying Effects of Digitalising Work Tools - Robert Helmrich

. .

Résumé :
This reader combines empirically grounded insights into how changes in work tools affect our work and how we react to it. It offers a hands-on approach to discovering the impacts digitalization might have on qualification and the labor market. Work tools can be used to link analytical perspectives to investigate the effects of digitalization on workplaces and employment, to understand the demand for specific competences within occupations, and also to arrive at a workspace-specific understanding of these changes.
