Labour market developments

The labour market is changing rapidly.

Flexibilisation means shorter employment contracts and technological developments are moving so fast that we are not completely aware of tomorrow's jobs yet. What we do know is that certain competencies are becoming increasingly important. The changing labour market requires adaptability and the ability to quickly acquire information. Social skills are also becoming increasingly important.
