Abstract:
The development of labour law is a process that follows the evolution of social relations in their complexity. Having emerged with a view to protecting the right to work and, in particular, the employee, labour law is called upon to develop its norms and institutes in line with the needs of society. Technological developments are having an impact on labour supply and demand, making digital skills an inevitable factor in the process of digitalisation, both in education and training systems and in the labour market. All this provoked the interest of the authors to examine the process of the impact of the fourth industrial revolution on the labor market in general and with trends in national terms. In this sense, the relevance of the topic is conditioned both by the extraordinary dynamics of the development of the digital society and mass digitalization, but also by their impact, which in one aspect or another can hardly be predicted. The scientific aim of the monographic work is to comprehensively, both doctrinally and theoretically, analyze and study the impact of digitalization on the processes of education and labor relations and the related peculiarities of the development of the respective relations and the way in which their adaptation is required. The object of the study is the current legal framework - European and national, regulating the trends and principles of the use of artificial intelligence and information and communication technologies in higher education and the labor market. The study is structured in a classical and balanced content, distributed in a sequence following the implementation of the research tasks and in its totality ensuring the realization of the scientific goal. Chapter one is devoted to the legal framework and policies at European and national level in the field of digitalization in education and the labour market. Chapter 2 looks at digitisation in higher education. It examines its impact on the educational process, as well as digital educational services provided by higher education institutions. Chapter three explores the digitisation of employment relations. The focus of the analysis is on the impact of digitalization on employment relations, its impact on the subjects of employment relations and digitalization and employability - specifics and trends. Chapter four is devoted to employer measures to ensure the quality of the workforce in a digital environment. Digitalisation and its impact on the rights and obligations of employees is also analysed in the necessary interrelationship. In this interrelation, the aspects of the monographic work serve not only the legal doctrine enriching theoretically both the labour law and the special administrative law literature in the sphere of higher education, but are also useful for the practice and in particular for the parties in the labour law relationship as well as for the higher education institutions. In conclusion and on the basis of the legal analyses carried out in the individual parts, substantiated conclusions, concrete legislative proposals and recommendations on the application of the norms in the different areas related to higher education and employment relations are drawn.
