Abstract

Digitization, automation and robotization, i.e. aspects of Industry 4.0, are changing the labor market. New jobs are being created, but some of the existing jobs are disappearing. It is necessary to prepare and prove these changes and secure the labor market. The aim of this paper is to analyze the current state of the labor market in the Czech Republic, which is influenced by the fourth industrial revolution. The data come from the public database of the Czech Statistical Office. These are the official results of the Labor Force Survey in the Czech Republic in Q2 2019. The paper analyzes data and information on the structure of employment, unemployment rate, sector employment, age and educational structure of the population. Developments of individual indicators are then analyzed by expert evaluators economists. In particular, basic logical scientific methods such as analysis and generalization are used. At present, the Czech Republic has the lowest value of unemployed persons for the whole surveyed period. The distribution of employees roughly corresponds to the contributions of the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors to gross domestic product. The most important industry in the Czech Republic is the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, a significant proportion of the population of 65+ in the total population in the Czech Republic can be seen. Incoming changes have a significant impact on the required qualifications and the labor market in general. The primary objective of the Czech Republic should be to adapt the education system to the future needs of the labor market.
