This research synthesizes study findings about job specifications in the era of disruption and industry 4.0. Industrial revolution 4.0 era, based on digital technology, artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation, changes the type of jobs in the workforce to keep accelerating and unpredictable. The journals studied are from 2015 to 2019. This research focuses on the problem of job specifications in the era of disruption and industry 4.0 era in Taiwan. Revolution industry 4.0 brought more significant changes to all aspects, including education. The assessment and comparison of education management in Taiwan has led to the industry 4.0. Besides analyzing the types of jobs and competencies that graduates must have in accordance with industry 4.0 demands, this research also discusses job specifications that will still exist and new competencies that must be developed in order to face industry 4.0 in Taiwan. Vocational education as an education that creates job-ready graduates, must be ready to face industry 4.0. Therefore, this research discusses the ways in how to anticipate this problem. The research method used in this research uses literature review by analyzing journals related to job specifications and industry 4.0 competence. Based on several studies that have been carried out, the types of jobs that will still survive and the types of new jobs that will exist to face industry 4.0 can be classified, as preparation for the development of vocational education.

The 21st century has witnessed precipitous changes spanning from the way of life to the technologies that emerged. We have entered a nascent paradigm shift (industry 4.0) where science fictions have become science facts, and technology fusion is the main driver. Thus, ensuring that any advancement in technology reach and benefit all is the ideal opportunity for everyone. In this study, disruptive technologies of industry 4.0 was explored and quantified in terms of the number of their appearances in published literature. The study aimed at identifying industry 4.0 key technologies which have been ill-defined by previous researchers and to enumerate the required skills of industry 4.0. Comprehensive literature survey covering the field of engineering, production, and management was done from multidisciplinary databases: Google scholar, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Sage, Taylor & Francis and Emerald insight. Results of the electronic survey showed that 35 disruptive technologies were quantified and 13 key technologies: Internet of things, Big data, 3D printing, Cloud computing, Autonomous robots, Virtual and Augmented reality, Cyber physical system, Artificial intelligence, Smart sensors, Simulation, Nanotechnology, Drones and Biotechnology were identified. Both technical and personal skills to be imparted into the human workforce for industry 4.0 were reported. The study identified the need to investigate the capability and the readiness of developing countries in adapting industry 4.0 in terms of the changes in the education systems and industrial manufacturing settings. The study proposes the need to address integration of industry 4.0 concepts into the current education system.

“…The main characteristics of industry 4.0 include interoperability, visualization, decentralization, real-time capability, service orientation, modularity, convergence, cost reduction, efficiency and mass customization [17]. Industry 4.0 is a collective term for disruptive technologies and concepts of value chain organization [18], and wave of disruptions and uncertainties with a core of industrial transformation, revitalization and development [19]. This has escalated global competitions among developed and developing countries.…”

The war to technology and economic power have been the driver for industrialization in most developed countries. The first industrial revolution (industry 1.0) earned millions for textile mill owners while the second industrial revolution (industry 2.0) opened the way for tycoons and captains of industry like John D. Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan and Henry Ford. The third industrial revolution (industry 3.0) engendered technology giants like Apple and Microsoft, and made magnates of men like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. Now, the race for the fourth industrial revolution (industry 4.0) is on and there is no option, every country whether developed or developing must participate. Many countries have positively responded to industry 4.0 by developing strategic initiatives to strengthen industry 4.0 implementation. Unlocking the country’s potential to industry 4.0 has been of interest to researchers in the recent past. However, the extent to which industry 4.0 initiatives being launched globally has never been revealed. Therefore, the present study aimed at exploring industry 4.0 initiatives through comprehensive electronic survey of literature to estimate the extend of its launching in different regions. Inferences were drawn from industry 4.0 initiatives in developed nations to be used as the recommendations for East Africa Community. Results of the survey revealed that 117 industry 4.0 initiatives have been launched in 56 countries worldwide consisting of five regions. The country’s percent of industry 4.0 initiatives as per region were: Latin America and the Caribbean (15%), North America (40%), Europe (53%), Asia and Oceania (25%), Middle East and Africa (11%). While the worldwide percent was estimated as 25%. This revealed that the big gap is existing between countries towards the race for industry 4.0.
