BARIERY I ZAKRES AUTOMATYZACJI Z PERSPEKTYWY TREŚCI PRACY.

The aim of the paper is to identify the importance and scope of work process automation. As part of the defined in this way intention, the concept of automation has been explained, referring in this regard to terms corresponding to the concept of automation. An increase in the number of publications on automation, robotisation and mechanisation has been shown based on the bibliometric study. On the basis of the review of the literature on the subject, phenomena describing the impact of technical progress on the content of work have been identified. In particular, the requirements imposed on employees in work processes and so the essence of three effects have been presented, including unskill-biased technical change, skill-biased technical change and talent-biased technical change. Next, the approaches enabling the estimation of the potential scope of automation of work processes and the risk of automation of individual professions have been indicated. These approaches may constitute a starting point for the development of a diagnostic tool enabling estimation of the potential scope of work subject to automation and identification of factors and job variables constituting barriers to automation of work processes.
