Shaping the Future of Work and Learning: An International Perspective

Agile working, the Coronavirus pandemic and interaction between humans and machines all point towards fundamental shifts and challenges in the digital world of work.
In Germany, the Plattform Industrie 4.0, supported by the Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and the Ministry for Education and Research, has responded to these uncertainties with its Charter for Work and Learning in Industry 4.0. The Charter codifies the Plattform’s values, providing organisations and individuals with guidance on how to approach changes in the way we work and learn.
The Charter was presented during the digital Hannover Messe 2021 and immediately afterwards this event brought together representatives of major trade unions in Germany, Italy and Poland as well as the OECD to share their insights on different policy responses to the future of work. What challenges await us in the future, and what can each of the countries learn from each other?

ABOUT THE OECD
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation established in 1960 that works collaboratively to build better policies for better lives. Our goal is to shape policies that foster prosperity, equality, opportunity and well-being for all. Together with governments, policy makers, policy shapers, and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.
