Decent work in the digital era: Most vulnerable groups

Abstract

The debate concerning the impact of digitalization upon employment remains open. The constant evolution of technological innovations concerns society due to the effects that it may have on the organisation of the production, labor relations and, especially, on vulnerable groups. Even though the dimension and consequences of the technological revolution upon employment remain yet unknown, this raises the question about whether this new scenario may contribute in the fulfillment of the 8th Sustainable Development Goal of the United Nations: decent work and economic growth.
