We have a unique pleasure to present subsequent issue of REF journal. Predominated The complexity of economic system dominates these scientific papers. Authors offer multidimensional view on dealing, measuring and concluding on complexity and cohesiveness problems. In presented works we can find authors interest including agriculture, finance market, industry, energy supply area. What is the most interesting and worth recommendation is authors approach. It address problems as not to be isolated, but grounded in system, being part of it.
Celem artykułu jest ocena kompetencji cyfrowych pracowników wykonujących stacjonarnie pracę z wykorzystaniem nowych technologii oraz wskazanie na poziom zgodności kompetencji z wymaganiami w świetle dokumentów UE. Artykuł zawiera analizę literatury, w tym przegląd dokumentów UE dotyczących wymagań kompetencji cyfrowych, oraz ich diagnozę przeprowadzoną na podstawie wyników badania ankietowego w dużym przedsiębiorstwie przemysłu motoryzacyjnego w Polsce. Osoby zatrudnione na okres pięciu lat lub mniej pozytywnie oceniały swoje kompetencje i śmiało patrzyły na stojące przed nimi wyzwania, wykazywały też wysoką motywację do uczenia się w przyszłości. Opinie wyrażane przez menedżerów i przedstawicieli związków zawodowych okazały się zbieżne. Wynika z nich, że zidentyfikowany stopień umiejętności cyfrowych pracowników może stanowić dla firmy i instytucji publicznych podstawę dla opracowania niezbędnych działań dla podniesienia ich poziomu.

The aim of the paper is to evaluate digital competence among employees working with high-tech devices and identify their level of compliance with the requirements set out in EU documents. The article contains an analysis of the literature on the subject, EU documents and survey results. A comparative analysis of the opinions of employees, managers and trade union representatives is carried out based on the results of a survey in an industrial company where stationary work is required. The results show that in the Greater Poland (Wielkopolska) region of Poland, the level of employee qualifications is average. People employed for a period of five years or less positively assessed their level of competence and were positive about the challenges ahead; they also expressed a high degree of motivation to learn in the future. The positions of the managers and the union representatives were similar. The main implications include the fact that the level of digital skills found may form the basis for necessary steps to be taken by companies and public institutions to upgrade employees’ skills. The article assesses the current level of digital competence of employees and the extent to which they adhere to the requirements of the literature, EU documents and national surveys.
In the era of digitisation, the role of remote work is growing. The digitisation of work has brought new opportunities and threats to the economic function of labour. This function, pointing to the fundamental role of employment, which is to provide added value for the employer and remuneration for the employee, has acquired a new meaning. Therefore, in the era of digitisation, it seems justified to assess the impact of remote work on labour productivity (in terms of organizational factors, cost factors and work quality). The subject of the study is to analyse the productivity factors of remote work (based on work performed under permanent and short-term employment, including various work models and irregular work patterns). The main objective of the research is to identify factors determining perceived productivity of individual workers who perform their job remotely and to measure the importance of factors determining labour productivity. The methodology used in the study is based on the analysis of the literature and conclusions drawn from a survey conducted in Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary (a total sample of 450 units). Logistic regression and the k-means method were used in the statistical analysis. They allow measuring the relationship between the strength of a stimulus represented by the percentage of cases showing a specific response on how productivity is verified by the stimulus. Moreover, they bring the possibility to group factors in clusters representing workers with different sets of productivity factors. Results show that across the study sample, high stress, low employee control, and limited communication with managers minimise the growth of remote work productivity, since social relationships at work are correlated with productivity. Nonetheless, work organisation traits such as proper work environment, travel cost savings, technical assistance access, and a fast Internet connection remain positively related to remote work productivity.
