How is it changing work, and what are the

implications for people and society?

Historically, technological innovations have had a great impact on the
places and the work program, that is, in the temporal and spatial
dimensions from work. The first industrial revolution caused the
concentration of workers in the industry in large plants and imposed rigid
formulas on working hours. With the arrival of the electric light, those
schedules were extended beyond the hours with natural light, and this had
important repercussions for people and society. As a result, new measures
were taken, such as those concerning the number maximum hours of work
and night work for women. So, what could the fourth industrial revolution
entail? The combination of technology and policy decisions in recent
decades has already driven the interdependence of economies and the
rapid inclusion of many millions of people in a single global system of
production and exchange.
WORK AND TIME
The progressive reduction of working time is, in its own right, an
objective of long history of social policy, feasible thanks to the
improvement of productivity and level of life, and topicality from
the perspective of lack of work they forecast some analysts of the
future of work. In practice, these reductions tend to introduced as
part of a package of measures designed to meet the need of
internal flexibility of companies in the context of the global
economy of 24 hours, and the need for workers to reconcile work
and private life. They can be the object of complex negotiation
and dialogue processes, just as it was evident in the recent
collective agreement signed by the metallurgical sector and
railways in Germany, in which the flexibility to reconcile private life
and Work life has been linked to the ability of workers to
determine their own balance and choose to reduce the number of
work hours per week (for example, to 28 hours in the metallurgical
industry) and for a longer annual license.
WORK, PLACE AND SPACE
Changes offer the possibility or requirement to work at any time, and At the same
time they are opening the possibility of working anywhere. The process of
globalization has redrawn the international division of labor, that will continue to
evolve in response to the various factors that determine decisions on the location
of production and the provision of services. There will be a reconfiguration of the
global value chains, as a result of which the work, the positions of work and tasks
will change their location. The workers will also perceive that instability of the
site. There is a Growing trend, although not universal, to consider less necessary
or advantageous group a large number of workers in large production plants. The
physical places of work and the formulas of employment begin to have "fissures",
as a consequence, in part, of new models of production based on the greater use
of contractors and subcontractors. The diversification of formulas employment
means that workers will no longer remain for a long period of time one of them,
but they will move from one to the other. In addition, the application of
information and communication technologies allows a growing part of the work to
be done outside of a place of stable and collective work. It can happen, then, that
in a moment it is offered to the worker the possibility of working from home or
from another location to distance and, at another time, that the workplace is
permanently deleted and, consequently, working in another place is a
requirement and not an option.
