Key competencies expected on the contemporary labour market

Abstract

A lot has been said and written about competencies in the recent years. They are an object of interest of many scientific disciplines: psychology, educational studies, anthropology, sociology, management science, but also of the labour market. The question of competencies sought after on the modern labour market frequently appears in the conversations among people who search for work, and among the employers. What competencies must a person have in order not to become unemployed? What are the competencies which the employers look for? What competencies may ensure good work? In order to get the answers to the above questions, the article presents a theoretical analysis of available literature.
