Abstract
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is characterized by the onset of radical changes associated with the advent of new technologies that enable the dis-semination and sharing of innovation much faster than ever before. The question arises, what will be the future of work, and how will the competen-cies of the employees and employers emerge in today’s digital era? Study from the 2017 Manyika et al. claims that by 2030, 75 million to 375 million workers (3 to 14 percent of the global work force) will have to switch their actual job positions and their occupational cate-gories. In the sample of 50 Slovak companies, we have analyzed the expected focus of companies for the following 5-10 years. The most expected trend (48% of com-panies) is greater focus on services. Further, one third of the analyzed companies ex-pect to focus on expansion of business activities, creation of new additional services, expansion of company´s operations and transition to digital way of providing services. More than 70 percent of analyzed companies see soft skills as important, followed by professional qualification and analytical skills.
