Abstract

Die künftige Arbeitswelt wird – wie bereits die jüngere Vergangenheit – vom technischen Fortschritt, der Globalisierung, dem demographischen Wandel und institutionellen Veränderungen geprägt sein. Wir können unter diesen Bedingungen eine vielfältige Arbeitswelt mit signifikanten Unterschieden der Beschäftigungsdynamik und der Arbeitsbedingungen nach Branchen und Berufen erwarten. Kreative, interaktive und komplexere analytische Tätigkeitsfelder werden noch mehr an Bedeutung gewinnen, so dass von einem "Humankapitalismus" gesprochen werden kann. Parallel hierzu stehen die Unternehmen vor wachsenden Herausforderungen im Hinblick auf Innovationsfähigkeit, Schnelligkeit und Flexibilität, wobei die Vereinbarkeit mit den Bedürfnissen der Arbeitskräfte eine zentrale Herausforderung für eine tragfähige Arbeitsorganisation wird. Dies spricht für mehr Autonomie im Arbeitsprozess.
