Chapter Chapter 8 in Economic Policy in the Digital Age, 2024, pp 177-204 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter focuses on the impact of digitalisation on employees, labour markets and the distribution of incomes. It distinguishes between occupations and tasks and shows that digitalisation may cause displacement effects, but can hold the potential for employment growth. It also treats qualitative aspects and how digital technology effects the structure of employment. It discusses changes in working conditions and employment relationships and discusses the extent to which the opportunities offered by digitalisation are leading to concentration trends. Accordingly, it draws some conclusions about the corresponding implications for policy.
