Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic may have disrupted the socioeconomic fabrics of the world, but it also has spurred the incorporation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) technologies into organisational operations, work settings, service deliveries and our everyday life. The workability and cost-effectiveness of these technologies will motivate companies to enhance their incorporation into respective organisational and operational designs. This will subsequently change our employment and the way we work as evident in the technological changes throughout previous industrial revolutions. This overview aims at charting out the universal societal changes, particularly changes in work aspects, corresponding to industrialisation; and how IR4.0 may alter current social and occupational landscapes in the near future. These universals are then used to contextualise the social and occupational changes during Malaysian industrialisation. The challenges and some suggestions for the direction of future research on work/ occupation as Malaysia ventures into IR4.0 are presented at the end of this overview.

进入工业4.0:描绘工业化马来西亚的社会和职业变化
2019冠状病毒病大流行可能扰乱了世界的社会经济结构,但它也促使第四次工业革命技术融入组织运营、工作环境、服务提供和我们的日常生活。这些技术的可行性和成本效益将激励公司加强将其纳入各自的组织和运营设计。这将随后改变我们的就业和工作方式,这在之前的工业革命中的技术变革中是显而易见的。这一概述旨在描绘出普遍的社会变化,特别是与工业化相对应的工作方面的变化;以及工业4.0在不久的将来会如何改变当前的社会和职业格局。然后将这些共性用于马来西亚工业化期间的社会和职业变化的背景。在本概述的最后,我们提出了马来西亚进入工业4.0的挑战和对未来工作/职业研究方向的一些建议。
