"The digitalization of work is a topic that is becoming more and more important in our discussions today. However, few people really realize the extent to which it can affect our future. This scientific research aims to better understand the opportunities and challenges of digitalization for employees and employers and the role to be played by European actors. In order to provide a structured answer, this work is based on the following question: "How do European-level players - European Commission, European employer associations and European trade unions - cope with digitalisation of work? To answer this research question, we consulted numerous scientific articles published by our three European institutions. These have led us to identify four key dimensions concerning the digitization of work: employment, inequalities in private companies, artificial intelligence and gender equality. These dimensions give a better visibility on the challenges, positive and negative, of digitalization on the world of work and also allow us to better understand the impact and scope of digitalization. The conclusion of this work is that digitalization represents a major challenge for the world of work and for our European actors. It is therefore important that they accompany workers in this digital transition in order to reduce job losses and inequalities that will only increase if no measures are taken today and in the future."
