About the event
Framed against the background of disruption through technological advances and continued evolution of the business landscape, one of the key concerns for workers will be continued employment opportunities in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) paradigm and for companies it is the ability to source for the appropriate skills sets required to meet their requirements. Labour-augmenting and labour-displacing technology in particular is at the heart of transforming business models and the ensuing human capital needs for companies both large and small.
This workshop aims to surface the challenges that both employers and educators who develop the skillsets of workers have to overcome to meet the challenges of human capital development. With current discussions on Industry 4.0 focussing on the potential displacement of workers via labour-displacing technology, the conversation on augmenting workers with technology, redesigning the job scope and working environment is muted.
We intend to create better synergy…
