Abstract:
<p>Crowdsourcing is a process where a company outsources a task to a large group of the digital worker through an online platform. In Malaysia, the crowdsourcing ecosystem comprises of three key role players which are job providers, platforms and digital workers. The cycle starts when a job issued by the job providers. Then the platform advertises it to the digital workers who registered themselves in the system. The digital worker is an individual having different skills, knowledge, experiences and education level. Those who are interested and has the capabilities to complete it will pull the job based on the first come first serve basis. Basically, the aim of the platform is to ensure that the tasks are taken immediately and completed within a given time by the right skill of the digital worker. However, the platform does not have a structured mechanism to classify the type of task that would confirm the task match to the digital worker. Tasks are given based on digital worker skills and knowledge. A comprehensive mechanism to define and describe the task properties is important. Apart from enabling the determination of the remuneration value, it will also specify skill required and their level of competency. To solve that issues, this paper present the flow and process development and measured the relationships between the types of tasks and the digital workers in alluvial chart apps prototype. 76% of respondents agreed that the alluvial chart shows a comprehensive relationship. As a conclusion, this study defined the comprehensive relationships among the variables will facilitate a platform to match between digital workers to the tasks.</p>

Abstract:
Technology is enabling new forms of coercion and control over workers. While digital platforms for labour markets have been seen as benign or neutral technology, in reality they may enable new forms of worker exploitation. Workers in precarious conditions who seek employment via digital platforms are highly vulnerable to coercion and control via forms of algorithmic manipulation. This manipulation is enabled by information asymmetries, lack of labour protection, and predatory business models. When put together, these deficits create a perfect storm for labour exploitation. This article describes how digital platforms alter traditional labour relations, summarises case data from several existing studies, and details emerging forms of worker control and barriers to worker agency. It explores current definitions of forced labour and whether digital spaces require us to consider a new conceptualisation of what constitutes force, fraud, and coercion. It concludes with a summary of possible responses to these new forms of abuse in the global economy, including alternative models for business and for worker organising.

Abstract:
Platform-based work and corresponding business models are redefining the work landscape. The rapid growth in digital platforms has prospered since the start of the pandemic, enabling various service-based gig work tasks such as Amazon, Uber and Deliveroo. Currently, there is scant literature that examines the well-being of gig workers in the platform economy. In this article, we reflect on the well-being of one category of gig workers, low-skilled service-based gig workers. These workers are often migrants or transient workers who face barriers to enter the job market in a foreign country, need a job to generate an income for the family, often transition between jobs or wish to conduct flexible, temporary gigs afforded by many digital platforms. Informed by an overview of the literature and the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) definition of well-being, our study supports the notion that precarity leads to compromised worker well-being. As a consequence, we identify four themes for gig worker well-being that can be incorporated in the design of platforms to improve the well-being of low-skilled service-based workers: (1) regulatory aspects and contracts to protect the worker, (2) job-related appraisal and reward systems, (3) feeling connected in a work-related social network and (4) algorithmic control and organization of tasks and work. Our study opens discourse on digital platform worker well-being, suggesting improvements to digital platform design to support worker well-being for service-based gig workers and potentially all forms of gig work.

Abstract:
Precarious working conditions resulting from neoliberal policies of the Indian state have placed an overwhelmingly young and mobile industrial workforce under a lot of duress. Traditional forms of organizations and modes of resistance such as labor strikes that were thought to be effective are now increasingly seen as inadequate against the speed and complexity of contemporary production processes, forcing the workers to devise commensurate responses. In this article, I discuss some of the newer strategies of resistance gaining prominence among industrial workers, especially as they are mediated through digital media. Focusing on online self-work underpinning worker agitations, I argue that contemporary labor movement should devise creative strategies using new media tools, to which the millennial worker has unprecedented access, in addition to their traditional rank and file struggles, to counter contemporary challenges.

Abstract:
The increasing prevalence of large-scale labor aggregation platforms, worker analytics, and algorithmic decision-making by management raises the question of whether workers can use similar technologies to advocate for their own goals. Yet, there are inherent challenges in building worker-centric tools that collect, aggregate, and share data in responsible and ethical ways. In this paper, we present the design and deployment of the Shipt Calculator, a tool developed in collaboration with non-profit worker groups that allows app-based delivery workers to track and share aggregate data about their pay, increasing wage transparency. We first discuss the design challenges inherent to building worker-centric technologies, particularly for informally organized workers, and ground our discussion in the history of worker inquiry and co-research. We then describe some principles from this history and our own lessons in designing the Calculator that can be applied by future researchers and advocates seeking to build technical tools for organizing campaigns. Finally, we share the results of using the Calculator to audit an app's shift to a black-box pay model using data contributed by 140 workers in the Summer of 2020, finding that although the average pay per-order increased under the new payment model, almost half of workers experienced an unannounced pay cut during the shift, and many workers worked shifts that paid under their state's minimum wage. Finally, we discuss how tools like the Calculator demonstrate the important role that aggregate worker data, and a new Digital Workerism, can serve in creating and maintaining a more balanced platform economy.

Abstract:
The tentative study explores why information and communication technology (ICT) does not show effective power in increasing Chinese worker activism publicity with the digital divide framework. I conducted in-depth interviews with worker activism participants that are motivated to adopt ICT for mobilising and gaining public awareness and support for their collective actions. The study found that in addition to strategic skills and motivations, perceived importance of the media in activism as well as media censorship and users’ coping strategies are influential in preventing them from effectively using ICT for activism. A typology is accordingly developed to position workers’ perception of adopting the Internet and mass media in activism. The two constructs are then incorporated into a revised pyramid model of the digital divide to describe two advanced divides when people already have access, skills and motivations to use ICT for political pursuits in societies with media censorship.

Abstract:
Working on digital platforms is a new form of work that, in Portugal, has not yet defined a regulated model of labour relations. This article analyses the worker profiles of various digital work platforms and their collective representation in Portugal. The diversity found in the case studies of worker profiles from each platform explains, in part, the lack of interest of labour movements in representing them. The type of tasks and the workplace contributes to the lack of interest in the search for collective representatives and demonstrates the (mis)alignments that occurred between workers and possible representatives. There is also potential for other alignments between the interests of different workers, trade union movements and associations of alternative representation

This thesis documents the testing of a prototype of a smartphone to be used by roadway workers and dispatchers that was based in a wireless data link service. The main purpose of using a smartphone in railroad communications is to eliminate errors due to radio and pronunciation deficiencies. Previous studies analyzed the communication environment of the dispatcher in order to address questions based upon data link becoming a means for sending and receiving information in railroad operations. These studies have examined what kind of information is appropriate for each medium (voice and visual), and by what criteria a dispatcher will select which communication medium. Building on these studies, this work presents a comparison between a radio and data link mediums for a long communication of a characteristic type: assignment of a form D. This thesis reports on the on site testing of the data link system which proved to be useful and efficient in certain aspects of railroad applications. The new system was faster and more effective than the radio communication when used to convey long messages such as filling out Form Ds. The radio communication was faster than the datalink for confirmation communications that only require yes/no answers. One reason for this difference appears to be the users' unfamiliarity with the device. The time to convey short messages could also be reduced after the users become more proficient with the new system. The document also includes an analysis of the regulatory challenges that the new system would bring. A list or recommendations for the new regulations are presented at the end of the report.

Abstract:
Background: The unethical treatment of factory workers is widespread, especially in developing countries. There is no international legal body with the jurisdiction to uphold universal labor rights. Hence, the responsibility to ensure worker well-being falls upon the multinational organizations that operate the supply chain. These focal firms often use social auditing; however, recent research reveals that this approach does not incorporate workers' experiences on a consistent basis. To address these shortcomings, a new technology has enabled organizations to connect directly with factory workers, we term the technology digital reporting tools (DRT).  Problem: Even though DRT potential is supported, their adoption rate amongst multinational organizations remains minimal. The benefits of these tools cannot be leveraged without firm implementation. In fact, the estimated market size for socially sustainable tools in global supply chains significantly outweighs their investment rates. This discrepancy must be explained to advance the industry.  Purpose: This thesis intends to deepen the understanding of individual and group level resistance within the change management field by researching a phenomenon that combines technology and social sustainability: DRTs. By recognizing the internal subjective experiences of potential users of DRT technology, we ultimately hope to inform DRT-providers and focal firms of internal and unrealized bottlenecks that hinder the adoption of these tools.  Method: The thesis employs an inductive research approach with a qualitative research design based on 8 semi-structured interviews. All respondents are potential users of the technology within focal firms.  Result: Upon researching the experience of potential users, we find that their willingness to suggest DRT to upper management is the primary mechanism that impacts adoption. We partitioned willingness to suggest into two aggregate dimensions: perceived acceptance of upper management and organizational culture. We find potential users hold an internal need to pitch DRT to upper management in monetary terms. Furthermore, half of DRT utility was unknown by respondents. Lastly, we correlate the sub-theories of change management to the different factors we identified.

Full text
Abstract:
The World Health Organization (WHO) has forecast a global shortage of health workers by 2030, predominantly affecting low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This sits in tension with the United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goal 3 (healthy lives and well-being) through universal health coverage (UHC). To address this problem, the WHO encourages task shifting, recruitment, training, and deployment of health workers. In lowand middle-income countries (LMICs), frontline health workers (FLHWs) are responsible for expanding the reach of the health system and providing crucial reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health (RMNCH) services. Adequate and appropriate training is fundamental to the success of FLHWs, particularly in contexts where their scope of work may evolve or expand over time. Digital health solutions (defined as the use of digital, mobile and wireless technologies to support the achievement of health objectives) are increasingly being used to support the training of FLHWs. Strategies may rely on use of digital tools, including mobile phones, as the primary modality for training or as tools which augment traditional face-to-face instruction. Digital health has potential for FLHW training as it allows for listening, learning and teaching through interactive health content accessible even on basic mobile phones. This dissertation explored the literature on FLHWs in LMICs, digital health in LMICs, digital health used by FLHWs, and digital health used for training of FLHWs in LMICs. The journal “ready” component is a systematic review which discusses the various aspects of digital training for FLHWs in LMICs. For the purposes of the systematic review, seven electronic databases were searched for articles published in English from 2008-2018. Combinations of medical subheadings (MeSH) that were used were: “mHealth”, “health worker”, “community health worker” and “low- and middle-income country”. From a total of 2628 identified studies, abstracts were screened with four filters to identify studies about “training”, and eventually a total of 16 studies were included. The included studies were critically appraised and coded descriptively to enable a narrative synthesis of findings. Of the sixteen studies, twelve used mobile and/or smartphones for FLHW training. A wide range of digital platforms were used to provide information (and where relevant enable interaction). Duration of training programs varied from five days to six months. Training content was relevant to the various health services and practice areas the FLHWs worked in. Training focused on continuing education through in-service training of new content or in-service refresher courses. Three training pedagogies were used: 1) didactic training techniques – in four studies information was provided passively without an interactive component; 2) interactive training techniques – six studies used platforms to provide information along with an interactive component via multi-media; and, 3) blended-learning approach – six studies delivered training via didactic and interactive approaches by combining live and distance training. Consistent with the literature review, all studies reported increased knowledge and positive perceptions of digital health for FLHW training. Interactive and blended learning approaches, especially when accessed through mHealth technologies, are feasible, effective, appropriate, cost effective and scalable in LMICs. The conclusion from the literature and systematic reviews were that long-term effects (e.g. change in behaviour, improved service provision) need to be researched further.

Abstract:
Il presente lavoro di ricerca analizza le origini e la vigente disciplina dell’orario di lavoro nell’ottica della tutela della salute e sicurezza del lavoratore che opera mediante piattaforme digitali. Sebbene l’orario di lavoro abbia conosciuto una fase di crisi nell’assolvimento delle sue funzioni già prima dell’avvento della gig-economy, quest’ultima ha reso ancor più incerta la distinzione tra tempi di lavoro e tempi di riposo, con conseguente maggior difficoltà di garantire il rispetto della durata massima della prestazione, così come definita dalla legge e dalla contrattazione collettiva. Dall’analisi della giurisprudenza nazionale e sovranazionale è emerso, infatti, che le inedite modalità di svolgimento della prestazione, unitamente alla formale libertà assegnata ai prestatori nella scelta del luogo e del tempo dell’esecuzione della prestazione, incidano sul processo di qualificazione, impendendo l’applicazione dello statuto protettivo del lavoratore subordinato, e dunque l’applicazione della disciplina dell’orario di lavoro ai fini della tutela della salute e della sicurezza del lavoratore. Preso atto della resistenza verso il superamento del sistema dicotomico basato sulla distinzione tra lavoro subordinato e autonomo, emersa anche nei più recenti interventi del legislatore comunitario, si riflette sulla possibilità, da un lato, di intervenire sulla nozione di orario di lavoro, per incrementare la tutela della salute degli stessi lavoratori subordinati che operano con l’utilizzo di tecnologie digitali; dall’altro lato, con riferimento ai lavoratori che non rientrano nella fattispecie della subordinazione, sulla necessità di scindere la qualificazione dei tempi ai fini di tutela della salute e della sicurezza del lavoratore, quale diritto fondamentale spettante a tutti i lavoratori, dalla qualificazione del rapporto per l’applicazione dello statuto protettivo del lavoro subordinato.
This research work analyzes the origins and the current regulation of “working time” with a view to protecting the health and safety of those who works through digital platforms. Although working time have experienced a phase of crisis in the performance of its functions even before the advent of the gig-economy, the latter has made the distinction between work times and rest times even more uncertain, resulting in greater difficulty in ensuring compliance with the maximum duration of work, as defined by law and collective bargaining. From the analysis of national and international jurisprudence, it emerged, in fact, that the unprecedented methods of carrying out the service, together with the formal freedom assigned to workers in choosing the place and time of execution of the work, affect the qualification process of the employment relationship, preventing the application of the protective statute of the subordinate worker, and therefore the application of the regulation of working time for the purpose of protecting the health and safety of the worker. Taking into consideration the resistance to overcoming the dichotomous system based on the distinction between subordinate and self-employed work, which has also emerged in the most recent interventions by the European Union legislator, this research reflects on the possibility, on the one hand, of intervening on the notion of working hours, to increase the protection of the health of employees who operate with the use of digital technologies; on the other hand, with reference to workers who do not fall within the case of subordination, on the need to separate the qualification of times for the purpose of protecting the health and safety of the worker, as a fundamental right due to all workers, from the qualification of the relationship for the application of the protective statute of subordinate work.

The main target of this research, which has a qualitative character, is to examine whether CEFET-MG offers a technical formation in electronics in due proportion to the current labor market referring to employability and permanence in the work, especially regarding to the digital literacy level and the acquaintance with the English language. For this, a case study was conducted and data were collected in CEFET-MG, more precisely in the technical course of Electronics, and in 06 companies that are established in the metropolitan area of Belo Horizonte. This research is anchored in the theoretical assumptions about globalization and the transformations occurring in our contemporary society after the spread of new technologies (CASTELLS, 2009; LÉVY, 1996; 2000), the concept of digital literacy according to Soares (2002, 2003) and Xavier (2009) and its implication in education. We seek to verify the development of the web (SNYDER, 2009; THORNE & BLACK, 2008) and to investigate the required competence for employability and permanence in the work (ZARIFIAN, 2002; LAZZARESCHI, 2007; 2008). To accomplish the proposed goal a questionnaire with semi-structured questions was applied to students and ex-students at CEFET-MG in order to ascertain their digital literacy level and their English level. Furthermore, interviews were conducted with those students, with the Coordinator of the Electronics course, with the General Coordinator of the Professional Training and 06 representatives of the companies chosen. The purpose of the interviews was to identify the real needs of digital literacy and English, by both trainees and/or workers and by the companies. We concluded that students are dissatisfied with the teaching received, as regard to the development of their digital literacy and English learning, required for the working world. It seems urgent that CEFET-MG should promote some adjustments in the curriculum in order to continue offering a free high-quality education, as it intends to. Similarly, it seems possible to infer that all institutions that purpose to prepare students for the labor market should also keep their curriculum updated to be able to provide their students with subsides, thus assuring them more and better opportunities
O objetivo desta pesquisa, de caráter qualitativo, está em averiguar se o CEFET-MG oferece uma formação técnica em eletrônica consoante com a empregabilidade e a permanência no mercado de trabalho atual, em especial no que se refere ao nível de letramento digital e ao conhecimento de língua Inglesa. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo de caso e os dados foram coletados no CEFET-MG, mais precisamente no curso técnico em Eletrônica, e em 06 empresas da região metropolitana de Belo Horizonte. A pesquisa ancora-se nos pressupostos teóricos acerca da globalização e das transformações que vêm ocorrendo na sociedade contemporânea a partir da difusão das novas tecnologias (CASTELLS, 2009; LÉVY, 1996; 2000), do conceito de letramento digital segundo Soares (2002, 2003) e Xavier (2009) e seus desdobramentos na educação. Buscamos verificar o desenvolvimento da web (SNYDER, 2009; THORNE & BLACK, 2008) e levantar as competências necessárias para a empregabilidade e permanência no trabalho (ZARIFIAN, 2002; LAZZARESCHI, 2007; 2008). Para atender o objetivo proposto foi aplicado um questionário com perguntas semiestruturadas aos alunos e ex-alunos do CEFET-MG com o propósito de verificar seus níveis de letramento digital e de Inglês. Além disso, foram feitas entrevistas com esses alunos, com o Coordenador do Curso de Eletrônica, o Coordenador Geral de Estágios e 06 representantes das empresas escolhidas. As entrevistas tiveram o propósito de identificar a real necessidade do letramento digital e do Inglês, tanto por parte dos estagiários e/ou trabalhadores, quanto por parte das empresas. Concluímos que os alunos encontram-se insatisfeitos com o ensino recebido, no que se refere ao desenvolvimento de seu nível letramento digital e à aprendizagem de Inglês, necessários ao mundo do trabalho. Parece premente que o CEFET-MG promova um ajuste curricular para continuar oferecendo um ensino gratuito e de excelência, como tanto preza a instituição. No mesmo sentido, parece possível inferir que as demais instituições que se propõem a preparar os estudantes para o mercado de trabalho também precisam trazer seus currículos sempre atualizados no sentido de fornecer tais subsídios aos estudantes, garantindo-lhes, assim, mais e melhores oportunidades

Abstract:
Chatbots are becoming increasingly common within both private and public sectors as they are implemented for organizations to provide service at any time. Within related research on the topic, the focus lies on the private sector and chatbot users, while the research on how chatbot implementation may affect the employees within the public sector is lacking. The focus of this thesis is therefore to provide more information about chatbot implementation within the public sector. More specifically, to understand how the employees expect and experience that the implementation of chatbots can affect them in their work and ways to communicate information.  In this study, eight semi-structured interviews with a duration of one hour each were conducted, where the interviewees were employees in municipalities and universities who are working with chatbot implementation. The results show that the interviewees expect that there will be a decreased workload and increased time to work on more complex tasks. However, the time that is liberated because of the chatbot needs to be reinvested into its upkeep, and the interviewees experience that new tasks are added to fill that time, indicating that their expectations are unfulfilled.  The results also show that the interviewees expect the chatbot to increase their availability and that it will be a new, less formal way to communicate information. It is experienced that people can contact them any time through the chatbot. They experience that the chatbot uses a simple language to communicate information and that it presents information like it would be presented by a human.

Abstract:
I denna uppsats undersöks viktiga aspekter i känsliga samtal med barn och hur socialarbetare kan skapa förutsättningar för ett fungerande samtal. Uppsatsen är en del av en pilotstudie vars övergripande syfte är att framställa digitala lösningar för socionomstudenter att öva på inför känsliga samtal med barn. Uppsatsen bygger på kvalitativa intervjuer och utifrån dess syfte och frågeställningar har vi använt oss av grundad teori som metodval. Den grundade genomförda analysen resulterade i kategorierna 1) känslomässig hantering för ett professionellt bemötande, 2) flexibilitet och följsamhet, 3) samtalsmetoder och 4) sammanhangsmarkering. De slutsatser som dragits är att den som håller i samtalet behöver besitta förmågor som att kunna lyssna aktivt, härbärgera andras känslor och vara flexibel. Att vara flexibel innebär att vara följsam gentemot barnet såväl som att vara flexibel gällande samtalsmetoder och anpassa detta efter varje enskilt barn. Därutöver dras slutsatsen att en sammanhangsmarkering är viktigt för barnet att få före, under och efter samtalen. En sammanhangsmarkering är även viktig för att kunna bemästra att hålla i känsliga samtal med barn, vilket vi menar på att digitala lösningar för att öva på samtal kan vara ett bra verktyg för blivande socialarbetare som kommer att jobba med barn.
This paper aims to examine important aspects in sensitive conversations with children and how social workers can manage to create prerequisites to make the conversations work out in a functional way. The paper is a part of a pilot study which aims to create digital solutions for social work students to practice sensitive conversations with children in a digital environment. Our study is based on qualitative interviews and the methodology used for analysis is constructivist grounded theory. The analysis has resulted in the core categories 1) emotional management to achieve a professional approach, 2) flexibility and adaptability, 3) conversational methods and 4) context markers. The result shows that the professional who is leading the conversation needs to be able to practice active listening, to harbor other peoples (the children) feelings and to be flexible. To be flexible means to be able to adopt the approach to every individual child, but also to be adjustable towards what conversational methods to be used, so that every individual’s need can be met. In conclusion, it is important in the treatment of a child to mark out the context of the conversation and situation for the child before, during and after the conversation. To mark out the context of the conversation is also important for the social worker to be able to master the conversation. Using digital solutions in order to practice on sensitive conversations can be an effective tool to build up context markers for the social worker and therefore get more comfortable to lead difficult conversations.

ZusammenfassungGig-Worker sind Arbeitskräfte, die ihre Dienstleistungen auf Internetplattformen anbieten und dadurch für verschiedene Aufraggeber tätig sein können. Jeder Auftrag wird als „Gig“ bezeichnet. Diese wachsende Form der Beschäftigungsart hat dazu geführt, dass Gig-Worker ähnlich einem Einzelunternehmen selbstständig agieren. Dementsprechend ist auch unternehmerisches Denken und Handeln erforderlich. Marketingaktivitäten, wie z. B. die Erstellung und Ausführung eines Marketingkonzeptes, sind ein wichtiger Bestandteil davon. Dieses Kapitel soll Gig-Workern nützliches Grundwissen anbieten und gleichzeitig eine Vorlage für zukünftige Marketingkonzepte sein. Zu Beginn werden das Thema „Gig-Work“, dessen wachsende Verbreitung und die Problemstellung dieser Arbeit vorgestellt. Später werden klassische und aktuelle Theorien zum Marketing und dessen Konzepte erklärt und anschließend der Bezug zu Gig-Workern in der Schweiz hergestellt.

Abstract:
Abstract Technological advances unveil a dual reality in the oil and gas Industry. On one hand, the benefits of blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI), among others, has arrived to revolutionize the industry. On the other hand, industry professionals remain trapped in bureaucratic processes that undermine their performance. The diagnosis: knowledge workers, responsible for optimizing the recovery and economic performance of the fields, are the missing link in the digital transformation chain. They are suffering the digitalization of the status quo. This paper puts forward a broad digital transformation framework designed to increase the knowledge worker's productivity. Digital transformation is not just about the implementation and use of cutting-edge technologies. It is also the response to digital trends, and about adopting new processes and redesigning existing ones to compete effectively in an increasingly digital world. Prioritizing technology as the ultimate goal puts the business processes and the knowledge workers aside from the discussion. The key to this proposal is rethinking the business model according to the possibilities of new technologies based on a six-dimension scheme:Corporate strategy: It defines the long-term vision and investment criteria for value creation. Technology is an element within a business scheme that should not be analyzed in isolation.Digital strategy: Within the corporate strategy, what operational and strategic role does technology play? Should it only support the company's operation, or should it drive strategic reinvention?Culture: While digital transformation is the company's response to digital trends, culture is the muscle that provides (or not) the attributes required to succeed in this transformation endeavor. Innovation and creativity should be promoted as part of the company's DNA.Knowledge processes: A business model, built on new technologies, will necessarily impose new and automated practices. While the automation of physical processes is a fact, the automation of knowledge processes is the weakest link.Data governance: It defines the necessary conditions that guarantee the quality of the information and its strategic acquisition. Two elements are a must: the automation of processes, thereby avoiding arbitrariness in data management; and centralized databases, thereby eliminating data duplicity and criteria discrepancy.Data Science: At this point in the model, the company has efficient, automatic, and fast processes, assuring the quality and availability of the data from its conception to the final storage. Then, data scientists will have all the means, and a clear and aligned vision (corporate strategy) to extract meaningful insights for the business.

Abstract:
Abstract Since 1980s, most process industries have embraced digital technology for better understanding and recourses managing, increase overall efficiencies and improve safety. In fact, the Industrial Automation (IA) field has given increase to the 3rd industrial revolution for nearly half a century. However, since then, IT megatrends have driven a significant growth in storage, information, computing power, and bandwidth. In this environment, the present of the network has enabled an open platform in sharing ideas, tool development and an agile strategy to exponentially speed up the software development effects, new business models and algorithms. Consequently, digital transformation and digitalization are becoming progressively in many industry. Digitalization can be defined as a use of current available digital technologies to enhance the business model or specific process and deliver new value and revenue. It is considered also as an approach that making processes and workflow easier than before and more efficient. Especially in today's tech - driven world, it is really important to adopt a digital culture in order to enhance the overall work and succeed. PDO is pushing the frontier of digitalisation in its maintenance strategies by implementing various modern smart technologies that can make its approach more succeed and effective. Hence, Smart Mobile Worker (SMW) is designed where it gives the site team the capability to log their maintenance observations in a hand-held tablet easily. Then, all the entered reports are transferred immediately to Nibras system where there is a customized design dashboard that gives the first line support team the overall performance of the Field Control System (FCS) along with alerts and notifications for any abnormal behavior. SMW and Nibras system are both integrated to conduct remote maintenance and proactively identify any exists issues in FCS/IPS/FGS system cabinets. This type of platform helps in bringing the expert office capabilities into the field which will help in taking the decision immediately and in short time.

Abstract:
There is increasing impetus for stronger cooperation between the US, EU and UK on digital technology governance. Drivers of this trend include the economic incentives arising from opportunities for digital trade; the ambition for digital technology governance to be underpinned by shared values, including support for a democratic, open and global internet; and the need to respond to geopolitical competition, especially from China. Two specific areas of governance in which there is concrete potential to collaborate, and in which policymakers have indicated significant ambitions to do so, are digital trade and digital technical standards. - To leverage strategic opportunities for digital trade, the US, EU and UK need to continue identifying and promoting principles based on shared values and agendas, and demonstrate joint leadership at the global level, including in the World Trade Organization (WTO) on e-commerce. - Policy actors in the US, EU and UK should work individually and collectively to build on the latest generation of digital trade agreements. This will help to promote closer alignment on digital rules and standards, and support the establishment of more up-to-date models for innovation and governance. - Collaborating on digital technical standards, particularly those underlying internet governance and emerging technologies, offers the US, EU and UK strategic opportunities to build a vision of digital technology governance rooted in multi-stakeholder participation and democratic values. This can provide a strong alternative to standards proposals such as China’s ‘New IP’ system. - Policy actors should seek to expand strategic cooperation on standards development among the US, EU and UK, among like-minded countries, and among states that are undecided on the direction of their technology governance, including in the Global South. They should also take practical steps to incorporate the views and expertise of the technology industry, the broader private sector, academia and civil society. By promoting best-practice governance models that are anticipatory, dynamic and flexible, transatlantic efforts for cooperation on digital regulation can better account for the rapid pace of technological change. Early evidence of this more forward-looking approach is emerging through the EU’s proposed regulation of digital services and artificial intelligence (AI), and in the UK’s proposed legislation to tackle online harms. The recently launched EU-US Trade and Technology Council is a particularly valuable platform for strengthening cooperation in this arena. But transatlantic efforts to promote a model of digital governance predicated on democratic values would stand an even greater chance of success if the council’s work were more connected to efforts by the UK and other leading democracies

Abstract:
The amount of scientific information has been growing exponentially. It became more complicated to process and systemize this amount of unstructured data. The approach to systematization of scientific information based on the ontological IT platform Transdisciplinary Ontological Dialogs of Object-Oriented Systems (TODOS) has many benefits. It has been proposed to select semantic characteristics of each work for their further introduction into the IT platform TODOS. An ontological graph with a ranking function for previous scientific research and for a system of selection of journals has been worked out. These systems provide high performance of information management of scientific information.

Abstract:
This working paper provides a summary assessment of the existing literature and data on digital forms of employment internationally. It illustrates the variability in how it is defined, how it is growing and what kind of risks are associated with these developments. Evaluation of these types of jobs is divided. On one hand, optimists point to the attractions and relative ease in finding employment on digital platforms; on the other hand, more critical perspectives argue that these employment contracts can result in exclusion from social protection systems. The evidence indicates that while overall a relatively small proportion of all employment digital work is growing, both on platforms as well as adoption amongst more traditional companies. The characteristics of digital workers can vary by region and occupation. Overall, they tend to be predominantly younger and more likely male, with a growing number of women albeit in particular occupations. Skills and earnings levels vary but the key issues of disputes is around pay, conditions and employment status. The consequences of this form of work for those with lower skilled digital employment can undermine their social citizenship: they lack comparable employment rights, or when unemployed entitlement to adequate social protection. The potential polarisation effects of digital exclusion and deficits will severely hamper the wider benefits of transparency offered by these technologies. During the pandemic these trends have become more apparent. The imbalance of bargaining power and regulatory governance to bridge gaps in citizenship entitlements undermines the collective potential of policy makers and trade unions to address these challenges. Nevertheless, there is emerging evidence of innovative challenges and contestation of these gaps by both union organisations and national regulators attempts to adapt social protection

Abstract:
The publication explores the features of the digital technologies’ usage to organize the work of the Young Scientists’ Councils and describes the best practices. The digital transformation of society and the quarantine restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have forced the use of various digital technologies for scientific communication, the organization of work for youth associations, and the training of students and Ph.D. students. An important role in increasing the prestige of scientific activity and encouraging talented young people to participate in scientific projects belongs to the Young Scientists’ Councils, which are created at scientific institutions and higher education institutions. It is determined that the peculiarities of the work of Young Scientists’ Councils are in providing conditions for further staff development of the institution in which they operate; contribution to the social, psychological and material support of young scientists and Ph.D. students; creating an environment for teamwork and collaborative partnership; development of leadership and organizational qualities; contribution to the development of digital competence. The advantages of using electronic social networks in higher education and research institutions are analyzed, namely: general popularity and free of charge; prompt exchange of messages and multimedia data; user-friendly interface; availability of event planning functions, sending invitations, setting reminders; support of synchronous and asynchronous communication between network participants; possibility of access from various devices; a powerful tool for organizing the learning process; possibility of organization and work of closed and open groups; advertising of various events, etc. Peculiarities of managing the activity of the Young Scientists’ Council with the use of digital technologies are determined. The Young Scientists’ Council is a social system, and therefore the management of this system refers to social management. The effectiveness of the digital technologies’ usage to manage the activities of the Young Scientists’ Council depends on the intensity and need for their use to implement organizational, presentation functions and to ensure constant communication.
