Reflecting on the European Year of Skills, one thing's clear: Europe's got skills. Our data reveals a 91% surge in green skill professionals in the EU over five years, outpacing the global 70% rise. The EU also leads in AI talent, with a 126% increase compared to the global 119% growth. Now, the challenge and opportunity lies in keeping that momentum for skill-building across Europe going. We should view the past year as a starting point for long-term skill-building, aiming for a whole 'decade of skills'. We're entering a new era where adaptable workers are key to staying competitive. This means we need to invest in skills and rethink how we approach career development, finding talent, and growing professionally.

🎙️ Calling all frontline service workers! 🎙️ I am conducting a qualitative study for my master’s exploring how frontline service workers react to algorithms (or, in other words, a digital assistant at work) in the workplace. If you happen to be a frontline service worker (in direct touch with the customer) and are interested in participating in a confidential interview, please reach out to me via direct message or email ([email protected]). Your identity will always be anonymous, and your input will contribute to advancing in a field of study that yet remains underexplored. Let’s make a difference together. #employeeexperience #UQ #Aalto #Thesis #Researchproject #Algorithms #Frontline #HR

Defining the skills citizens will need in the future world of work

The EU Year of Skills may be coming to an end, but it's really a beginning — the start of a fundamental shift to a skills-based economy. Skills will be the building blocks of the transformations that the European workforce will undergo; from the climate crisis, to the AI transformation, to advancing equity in the workforce, we stand at the threshold of a new era where the agility of the labour force will determine the competitiveness of economies. I share more today in POLITICO Europe including recommendations for policymakers, business leaders and workers on how to accelerate the shift to skills-based hiring. #EUYearOfSkills #SkillsFirst 

🚀 📚 New Paper Alert!   As digitalisation continues to reshape industries, there's growing concern about how it affects job quality and stability. The latest research from Project WeLaR explores whether technological advances push employees toward atypical employment forms, like part-time and fixed-term contracts, affecting their financial security and overall well-being.   Our researchers Francesco Venturini, Sem Vandekerckhove and Piotr Lewandowski show that wage coordination mechanisms can play a critical role in ensuring job stability in a tech-driven world. The study also suggests that when paired with the right policies, digitalisation may enhance job stability rather than undermine it.   📄 Read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/de8B4ksX  #FutureOfWork #JobStability #NewStudy #WellbeingAtWork #Digitalisation #JobQuality
