Frist and foremost, in my opinion, is flexibility (in many different ways since jobs and workplaces must evolve with the time).

Answer

The pace of technological change is accelerating, and workers need to be able to keep up. This means investing in upskilling and reskilling programs to help workers learn new skills and adapt to new roles.

Flexibility and work-life balance

'Human-first' to me means no automation.

There are only 2 reasons one uses automation:

1. Laziness – Speaks for itself
2. Too much work – You have to find out why you're too busy and fix the issue, not use an app to help keep you busy by just moving what you need to do to a different day.

Also regarding automation, I don't use any, why? I do the work when it needs to be done. I have an unpaid assistant (my task manager) and it tells me what I need to do and when.

We as humans are relying WAY too much on automation/robots/AI and such for too many tasks, and forgetting what it means to be human and to enjoy life and not work ourselves to the bone by moving sh!t around.

I'm in the minority, but I'm sure others will come around to understanding why one day ;-)

A diverse and inclusive workforce is essential for innovation and productivity. Employers need to invest in initiatives to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace. This includes hiring and promoting from underrepresented groups, and creating a workplace culture where everyone feels welcome and respected.

Igor Lysenko · Answer

This is adaptability to new technologies.

Answer

Flexibility, well-being, growth and development, and meaningful work are must-haves for a human-first future of work. BeforeSunset has the potential to be a game changer in this area by providing employees with a platform to find meaningful work.
