Purpose: The aim of the paper is to identify the changes in the area of work content in a selected municipal enterprise in the following years: 2009, 2018 and 2023. Design/methodology/approach: The study presents the results of the analysis of the work content of jobs of the municipal company according to ALM model and job evaluation. In the observations carried out on the general population there were also used following methods: interview, document analysis and group discussion. Similar approach is commonly used in the analysis of changes in work content under the influence of technology in sectoral and economic research. However, there is little research showing the application of such an approach in relation to individual enterprises, particularly all positions in the enterprise. Findings: Potential for automation of manual jobs have been limited to the greatest extent in core activities, which may suggest that it is in this area that technical progress in work processes, especially manual jobs, is implemented first and relatively most intensively. Additionally, technological progress in work processes implemented in core and auxiliary activities limits routine manual jobs, but is associated with an increase in routine cognitive jobs. Research limitations/implications: (if applicable) The research assumed that the change in the content of work occurred as a result of technical progress, which is justified especially in the case of analysis of all organizational positions in the company. However, further research should directly investigate the impact of technological progress on changing job content especially in the cross-section of individual organizational units in the management and auxiliary areas of the enterprise. Practical implications: Identification the different specificity of the impact of technical progress on the content of work in individual areas of the company's activity. Empirical confirmation of the sequence of automating work within individual areas of the company's activities. Originality/value: While researches on changes in work content in the context of technical progress across economies and sectors are relatively common, in relation to the general population of employees in an enterprise it is rather absent.
