dc.description.abstractThe dramatic technological changes occurring in the telecommunications industry in recent decades have bolstered the industry’s contribution to economic and social development. Information and communication technologies offer opportunities for increasing the productivity and competitiveness of the workforce. López Bassols’ (2002) empirical study found that ICT training had a positive effect on employment and, consequently, on countries’ economic growth. The author believes a relationship exists between the adoption of new technology and the structure of employment. Technology adoption increases the efficiency of the different agents in the production process. Nevertheless, individuals can only take advantage of the opportunities ICTs offer in increasing productivity and competitiveness by acquiring new knowledge and skills. In a labor market increasingly dependent on ICTs, the lack of a skilled workforce limits countries’ competitive advantage and widens the social and economic gaps of their populations.eng
