  • More about Digital Labour Markets in Central and Eastern European Countries: COVID-19 and the Future of Work

This book examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on changing labor markets and accelerating digitalization of the workplace in Central and Eastern Europe. It provides an innovative and enriching take on the work experience from the pandemic times and discusses the challenges of ongoing changes in labor markets and workplaces in a way that is not covered by the extant literature.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


This comprehensive book delves into the profound effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the transformation of labor markets and the rapid digitalization of workplaces in Central and Eastern Europe. It offers a fresh and insightful perspective on the work experience during these unprecedented times, exploring the challenges and opportunities arising from ongoing changes in the labor market and workplace.

Spanning 12 chapters authored by 34 esteemed labor market experts from diverse CEE countries, the book employs a diverse range of empirical methods to present its findings in a user-friendly manner, making it accessible to a broader audience, including non-scientific readers.

The volume aims to achieve three key objectives:

To enhance our understanding of the pandemic's impact on the adoption of workplace digitalization in the selected labor markets in CEE countries, and the potential trade-offs faced by individuals with and without access to this benefit.

To complement existing labor market research by incorporating insights into evolving skill demand.

To contribute new perspectives to policies and regulations shaping the future of work.

The book argues that the COVID-19 pandemic served as a stark reminder of the indispensable role of digital technology across various sectors and market activities. It concludes that in order to mitigate the risks of job displacement and maximize the benefits of digitalization in CEE countries, labor market partners must adopt effective governance strategies, including inclusive access to digital environments, re-skilling initiatives, and balanced regulations to address the more problematic aspects of digital work.

This book will be of immense interest to postgraduate researchers, scholars, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking to gain a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics shaping the labor market and workplace in the region.
