Abstract

On the midst of this new Industrial Revolution, a disruptive change of technological, economic and social systems is expected to take place in a near future. In this context, significant changes are forecast to impact the employment landscape over the coming years. New challenges and new opportunities will arise in this digital landscape, demanding from future workforce the ability to adapt and grow in such ground-breaking environments. The objective of this research is to understand the main people-focused factors related to the shaping of the fourth industrial revolution, as well as to assess Portuguese local workforce awareness and realignment towards the Industry 4.0 paradigm.
