Today, Eurelectric, EPSU and IndustriAll, commit to implementing by 2022 seven actions shaping the power sector’s digitalisation in an equally beneficial way for companies, workers and customers. They include:
- Providing guidelines for a socially responsible digital transition;
- Ensuring that new entrants to the labour market are equipped with the right skills, while experienced employees have access to adequate re-skilling and upskilling through continuous professional development and life-long learning;
- Partnering up with vocational education and training providers;
- Helping develop strategies to prevent psycho-social risks at the workplace;
