*THIS SESSION VIRTUAL-ONLY*
Session 2: Industry 4.0 Impact on the Worker
The industry-changing impacts of Industry 4.0 advancements can only be fully realized when there are corresponding changes in the manufacturing workforce. In general, these impacts are likely to be seen and experienced in terms of changes to: (a) the design of manufacturing work; (b) the manufacturing worker experience; (c) critical worker knowledge, skill, ability, and competency requirements; and (d) numerous other talent management considerations involving talent acquisition, retention, and training/development needs. The positive impacts of Industry 4.0 technologies on manufacturing will only be realized if the existing workforce can be reskilled and retained and if the size and training of the emergent workforce is also tuned to meet the new demands and respond well to the new opportunities presented by Industry 4.0.
