The implications of the Industry 4.0, like employment, replacement of labour force with robots, new occupations and skills demanded by the labour market, remote work and reduction of working hours, will impact significantly CSR in terms of generating social results and productivity improvement. In this light, the preparation of future managers and economists will be of key importance to keep social aims of business in new environment and under new challenges.
Taking into account this challenge, the project team is aimed to address the following identified needs:
– To address the evolution of the CSR and to refresh related university study programs.
– To incorporate the changing nature of CSR in the era of the Industry 4.0 into currently provided training within higher education institutions and to stimulate links to various after graduation programmes.
