The future of work will not be determined by technology alone, but by the policies, institutions and social dialogue that guide it.
In uncertain times, we need a strategic decent work agenda, built around rights, employment & skills, social protection & social dialogue.

looking for rounded skill bundles, combining cognitive, socio-emotional and manual skills in different
ways.

Strong productivity gains from AI observed at the task and individual worker level have not yet translated into measurable productivity growth at the firm, sectoral or macroeconomic level. Why so?

Psychosocial risks at work are not only damaging workers’ health but also the economy.
Their impact is equal to 1.37% of global GDP lost each year. The human cost comes first, but the economic cost is impossible to ignore.

Safe and healthy working environments are a fundamental principle and right at work.

When work is designed with reasonable demands, adequate support, opportunities for participation and respect for dignity, it benefits everyone.
