Digital technologies have been rightly compared to rocket fuel for national economies. They enable the rapid introduction of innovations into various areas of human activities, such as education, the consumer market and social cooperation. They stimulate business activity, generate revenue and create jobs. At the same time, digitization will lead to drastic changes in the labour market, doing away, in the process, with a whole array of professions that will no longer be required in those new conditions, which will make many people employed in those sectors and industries extremely vulnerable.
