Abstract

Today, humanity is on the verge of the fourth industrial revolution. The result of this process can be a radical transformation of all aspects of society’s life. Information technology is the core of the fourth industrial revolution. The multidimensionality and multidimensionality of the application of modern information technologies determines the infinity of the vectors of their application, which ultimately led to the digitalization of the overwhelming number of aspects of life. One of the defining components of human life is professional activity, which, of course, is also being transformed under the influence of the development of information technologies. However, this transformation process is extremely ambiguous. In connection with this specificity, the purpose of this study is a systematic analysis of the influence of the dynamics of the development of information technology on the transformation of the labor market. The hypothesis assumes that there is a systemic relationship between the development of technologies, their introduction into various spheres and changes in the labor market, the level of unemployment, the emergence of new professions, and the gradual extinction of certain other professions. The mathematical formalization of the alleged links, as well as a meta-analysis of changes in the statistical characteristics of these links, made it possible to formulate the vectors of the main directions of transformation of the labor market under the influence of the development of information technologies.
