Employee adaptability skills for Industry 4.0 success: a road map.

Industry 4.0 revolutionizes the concept of automation and digitization within the organization leading to immense interest in academia and industry. The digitization of an organization in terms of horizontal, vertical, and end-to-end integration would change the roles an employee discharges in an organization. The main purpose of the paper is to successfully develop an employee adaptability road map for the successful implementation of Industry 4.0. This paper critically analyses the previous studies to develop a roadmap of employee adaptability skills for the successful implementation of Industry 4.0. This study uses deductive methodology using a systematic literature review to group and thematically analyse 52 articles to develop the conceptual model. Besides, this study also ranks these dimensions using an empirical study and finds the most critical employee adaptability dimensions. This is the first systematic literature review and empirical study carried out on employee adaptability skills in Industry 4.0. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
