Chapter Chapter 7 in Public Administration in the New Reality, 2025, pp 173-189 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The speed of technological change including the more general introduction of artificial intelligence has revolutionised the labour market. It has changed the job profiles and the type of jobs available. At the same time, generation Z workers entering the labour market aspire to more flexible work arrangements and a better work-life balance and the resignation phenomenon, which started with the COVID-19 pandemic, but prompted by other such reasons as low, lack of flexibility in work arrangements and limited possibility of advancement also exert their influence on the labour market. The chapter endeavours to highlight how the labour market is evolving in the face of the new reality and how governments are being affected by the gig work on the labour market. It concludes by suggesting some measures for public administration can remain relevant in the job market.
