Abstract
In this chapter we focus on the challenges faced by labour market policy from technological change, including the demands made on the skills of the labour force, in relation to automation in the fourth industrial revolution. We document recent changes in the Danish labour market, and we argue that labour market policy needs to be for the employed as well as the unemployed, the latter are the traditional target of labour market policy. We highlight this policy need by referring instead to ‘work policy’, and we focus on how such policy can future-proof the competence development of the workforce.
