Objectives: The paper addresses the issue of professional enhancement as a solution to counter the negative externalities arising from digitalisation. Methodology: The methodology adopted for the research is based on the analysis of lifelong learning as an individual right to be effectively guaranteed to the working-age population. Results: Digitalisation, combined with the pandemic crisis, has increased interest in the issue of skill development as a basis for fostering the employability of the workforce, given that they also gained importance in recent active socio-economic recovery policies. Limitations and implications: The analysis is limited to a general overview of possible instruments for professional enhancement, despite taking into account some recent interventions on the matter. Originality: The article highlights some possible instruments that could lead skill enhancement to become an intrinsic protection for workers in the labour market.
Obiettivi: Il contributo affronta il tema dell’accrescimento professionale come mezzo per contrastare le esternalità negative derivanti dalla digitalizzazione. Metodologia: La metodologia adottata per la ricerca si basa sull’analisi dell’apprendimento permanente come diritto individuale da garantire effettivamente alla popolazione in età lavorativa. Risultati: La digitalizzazione, unita alla crisi pandemica, ha accresciuto l’interesse per il tema della professionalità come base per favorire l’occupabilità della forza lavoro, avendo questa trovato posto anche nelle recenti politiche attive di ripresa socioeconomica. Limiti e implicazioni: L’analisi è limitata a una generale panoramica dei possibili strumenti per l’accrescimento professionale, pur tenendo in considerazioni alcuni recenti interventi in tema. Originalità: Il contributo evidenzia alcuni possibili strumenti che potrebbero portare l’accrescimento professionale a diventare una forma di tutela intrinseca dei lavoratori nel mercato del lavoro.
