This reader combines empirically grounded insights into how changesin work tools affect our work and how we react to it. In this sense it is a"hands-on" approach to find out more about the impacts digitalisationmight have on qualification and the labour market. Work tools can be usedto link analytical perspectives to investigate the effects of digitalisationon workplaces and employment, to understand the demand for specificcompetences within occupations and also to arrive at a workspace-specificunderstanding of said changes.
