“…There is a broad discourse on the transition from traditional employment to new forms of non-standard employment, notably exploring shifts in work content (Kornelakis et al 2022). These new employment configurations diverge from established norms, incorporating formal employer-employee or client-self-employed relationships, work patterns, and organisational aspects, which include working time, workplace, and the utilisation of information communication technology (ICT) (Belli et al 2019;Canetta et al 2018;Findeisen et al 2020;Moniz et al 2022).

This paper investigates how interest groups in France and Germany communicate information about Industry 4.0 technologies and approaches. Specifically, this explanatory study employs cutting-edge big-data-type tools and machine-based automatic text processing to delve into the topics, arguments, and postulates related to Industry 4.0 strategies by trade unions and employers’ organisations. The goal is to determine which of these factors have been pivotal in shaping social dialogue in France and Germany. The findings reveal that social partners in both countries are involved in similar digitalisation-related initiatives and express predominantly favourable viewpoints regarding Industry 4.0 technologies. Key themes in the dialogues of both France and Germany centre around workers’ rights, working conditions, and skills training.
