Abstract

As industries evolve from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0, an augmented approach to aligning man and machine for organisational effectiveness becomes evident. It has refined the world of work and Human Resource Management (HRM). By aligning with the Industrial Revolutions, based on previous research, this paper highlights the impact of globalisation and technological disruptions on the world of work today. The study highlights the shift from working at office to hybrid style of working and its critical challenges faced by employees. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the necessity for organizations, especially for the HRM, to adapt to more human-centric and sustainable policies and practices for the evolving world of work. The well-being of employees needs to be a focus for HRM along with continually training them to keep pace with the changes caused by technological advancements. The authors propose a few frameworks and adaptive strategies to integrate the multi-generational workforce that co-exists today.
