Study shows that lifelong learning is needed

Workers must therefore be continuous on dealing with change and always something new Things to Learn hire to keep up with change. New jobs are created and existing workflows are partially automated. It is expected that 65 percent of the jobs that Gen Z born between 1995 and 2010 will hold in the future do not exist today.

This is the result of a new study by the ManpowerGroup, which was recently presented at the World Economic Forum in Davos and positive Signals for the labor market Future sends: Globally, more respondents expect jobs to increase due to digital Revolution than a decline (19 percent to 12 percent).

The study “Resource Further Training – The Skills Revolution” is based on a Online– Survey of 18.000 employers in 43 countries. It was carried out on behalf of ManpowerGroup Inc. by the market research institute InfoCorp. The international study results (English) are available at:

It is not yet clear foreseeable what these activities will look like. But employers already have an idea of ​​which ones qualifications, departments and professions will be in greater demand in the future.

26 percent expect a strong increase IT-Jobs out, 20 percent believe in an increase Significance HR department and for 15 percent jobs with customer contact are highly relevant in the digital age.

5 steps to perfectly trained employees

  1. Companies are realizing that they are responsible for ensuring that their employees are trained for activities in the digital future. Only two percent of German companies want to remain inactive here.
  2. The idea of ​​perfectly trained employees is, however, a utopia. The willingness and ability to lifelong learning is what makes employees good. Changes should address companies and employees with flexibility and active action.
  3. Instead of new courses and trainings, employers in Germany are focusing on the topic of continuing education. 87 percent of the respondents surveyed want to prepare their employees with internal training on the jobs of the future (internationally, they are 79 percent). Similarly, in the case of external trainings, the figure is 85 percent (internationally only 70 percent).
  4. However, the employees who are already working in the company are to be replaced by better qualified new workers, only plan 31 percent. Experts are also to be set up more frequently (47 percent).
  5. This is a good sign that provides stability and sends the right signals to employees.

Digitization replaces activities, not jobs!

Anxiety um den Workplace, which is fueled again and again by reports on digitization, is therefore unnecessary scaremongering. According to our current study, digitization will not change anything in the job situation in Germany. Employers estimate that as many new jobs will be created as will be lost.

Because decision makers in Companys do not believe that automation can completely replace existing positions. Almost half of the respondents expect that computers and robots can replace certain activities within a workplace, but not the People make dispensable.

So I'm convinced: Anyone who is open to changes, new technologies and work processes and does not rely on what they have learned Background resting is more needed in Industry 4.0 than fearing for his job.
