UNVEILING ROMANIA'S DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE LABOR MARKET LANDSCAPE

Abstract

In the context of globalization, new information and communication technologies are regarded as crucial drivers of daily life and economic activity, playing a strategic role in global development and holding significant potential for enhancing organizational efficiency. This research is grounded in societal changes catalyzed by the evolving trend of digitalization, which is fundamentally transforming the labour market, economy, and social life. Taking this into account, the primary objective of this research is to provide an overview of the stage of digitalization in Romania and the implications this phenomenon has on the labour market, in the present era of globalization. The methodological approach involves conducting a literature review in this domain, utilizing the VOSviewer tool, and adopting a statistical perspective based on DESI reports. Through this investigation, we aim to identify the fundamental elements characterizing the labour market and digital transformation in Romania, drawing upon existing literature.
