NAGAO MENEZES, Daniel Francisco. The prospects of work in society 4.0. Rev. Nac. Adm. [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.1, pp.11-19. ISSN 1659-4932.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/rna.v11i1.3011.

This article analyzes the debates societies have been having on how to define the implementation of their economic resources at hand in highly technological investments that prioritize either the economy’s productivity and competitiveness or social investments aimed at reducing existing income and labor disparities. This paper investigates the characteristics of technological progress and its impact on labor structuring, the particularities of the new technological paradigm called “Industry 4.0” and its effect on labor markets. Finally, forms of development through the so-called Appropriate Technology and Social Technology are discussed as a priority to mitigate the negative repercussions of technological advance on the labor market.

Keywords : Technology; employment; ndustry 4.0; social technology.
