Abstract

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, which is based on the development of information and communication technology (ICT), is expected to replace human knowledge work, which will cause problems of mass unemployment and wide income gap from job polarization. Furthermore, the change is expected to be rapid and wide, demanding proactive measures to respond to such abrupt social changes. However, previous literatures assume that the traditional form of employment will continue and provide limited solutions only. On the other hand, the Fourth Industrial Revolution will enable transition to the Prosumer Economy, which will ultimately lead consumers to become producers through increased job flexibility. If the prosumer economy arrives and the consumers become producers, it will no longer be the matter of finding workplace but rather, the matter of finding the work itself. In this regard, the new technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution can be the fundamental solution to such job issues. This paper suggests stable transition to the Prosumer Economy in order to solve the job issues in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. In order to effectively support the process, this paper suggests first, ensuring the amount of education by shortening labor time; second, facilitating life-time education through free online education service; and third, closing the digital divide through mandatory use of the e-government system.

정보통신기술 발달에 기반하고 있는 4차 산업혁명은 인간의 지식노동을 대체함으로써 대량실업문제 및 일자리 양극화를 통한 소득격차문제를 확산시킬 것으로 예상되고 있다. 더욱이 그 변화의 속도와 범위가 빠르고 광범위할 것으로 예상되어 급격한 사회변화에 따른 선제적 대응조치 마련을 요구하고 있으나, 기존연구에서는 전통적 형태의 일자리가 미래에도 지속될 것이라는 가정 하에 제한적인 해결방안만을 내어놓고 있다. 한편, 정보통신기술은 기존직무의 유연화 과정 등을 통해 기업의 생산방식을 변화시키고 있는데. 이러한 기존직무의 유연화 과정은 궁극적으로 소비자가 생산자가 되는 프로슈머 이코노미로의 전환을 가능하게 할 것으로 보인다. 만일, 소비자가 생산자가 되는 프로슈머 이코노미가 도래하게 될 경우 기존의 일자리문제는 더 이상 일자리문제가 아닌 일거리 문제로 대체될 수 있는데, 이것이야말로 새로운 기술을 활용한 일자리문제의 근본적 해결방안이 될 수 있다. 결과적으로 본 논문은 4차 산업혁명시대 일자리 문제 해결을 위해 프로슈머 이코노미로의 안정적 전환을 제안하고 있으며, 보다 생산적인 프로슈머 이코노미로 전환하기 위한 인적자원개발의 관점에서 첫째, 노동시간단축을 통한 교육시간의 확보, 둘째, 온라인 대중교육 무료지원을 통한 평생교육 활성화, 셋째, 전자정부 사용 의무화를 통한 정보격차해소 방안을 제안하고자 한다.
