Özet:

 The aim of the paper is to identify changes in the labour markets resulting from the use of new technologies. The basis for the analysis are theoretical and empirical findings in economic theory and data about the development of new technologies and their employment effects. The article shows how the views of economic theory on the impact of new technologies on the labor market have developed, starting from classical economics until recent times. In particular, views were highlighted that saw the effect of displacing the labor force and the effect of creating new jobs. The analysis indicates that application of the task-based approach to study labour demand enables better identification of transition channels of modern technology on the size and structure of labour demand. In the empirical analysis of the paper, panel causality test was conducted with data for the period 2000-2023 for 11 Central and Eastern European CEE countries. The empirical research did not confirm the alarmist predictions about the possibility of high technological unemployment as a result of technical progress. However, changes in the structure of labour demand are evident. According to the causality test results, technological development appears to be particularly associated with total employment, youth employment and youth unemployment.

 Bu çalışmanın amacı modern teknolojik gelişmeler ile birlikte işgücü piyasasında oluşan değişiklikleri incelemektir. Bu kapsamda literatürde yer alan teorik ve ampirik bulgulara dayanılarak modern teknolojilerdeki gelişmelere ve bunların işgücü piyasasına etkilerine yer verilmiştir. Yeni teknolojilerin işgücü piyasası üzerindeki etkilerine yönelik görüşler klasik iktisadi düşünceden günümüze kadar farklılaşmakta ve işgücü yapısındaki değişiklikler ile yeni işler yaratılmasının etkilerini savunan görüşlerin literatürde mevcut olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Diğer yandan literatürde konuya yönelik yapılan analiz bulguları modern teknolojideki gelişmelerin işgücü talebinin büyüklüğünü ve yapısını etkilediğini de göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada ampirik bir analize de yerilerek 11 Orta ve Doğru Avrupa ülkesi için 2000-2023 dönemi ait veriler ile panel nedensellik testi gerçekleştirilmiş ve teknolojik gelişmelerin istihdam ve işsizlik ile nedensellik ilişkisi araştırılmışır. Elde edilen bulgular teknik bir ilerlemenin sonucu olarak yüksek teknolojik işsizlik olasılığı hakkındaki öngörüleri doğrulmamakla birlikte işgücü talebinin yapısındaki değişikliklere açık olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmanın nedensellik testi bulguları ele alınan pek çok ülkede teknolojik gelişmelerin toplam istihdam, genç istihdam ve genç işsizliği ile nedensellik ilişkisine sahip olduğunu göstermektedir.
