What is it about?
This article aims to systematise and provide a structure for research into the Future of Work (FoW). We used SciMAT to conduct a science mapping analysis based on co-word bibliographic networks.

Why is it important?
Our results about the Future of Work field are counterintuitive, as concerns over satisfaction, leadership values or corporate social responsibility (CSR) appear alongside traditional human resource management (HRM) themes, such as organisational commitment or careers, as well as more current FoW themes, such as the impact of technological change on employment, wage inequality, vulnerable workers, telework or talent management. In addition, we offer a classification of the most prolific FoW research themes and challenges into technological, social, economic and political categories.
Perspectives
What is FoW about? FoW looks far beyond the single notion of robots replacing individual jobs. the FoW refers to the technological, social/demographic (well-being), economic and political/institutional dimensions. Based on the findings of our bibliometric analysis, where we obtained systematic knowledge of the most prolific FoW research themes and tendencies, we can categorise all these themes into their technological, social/demographic, economic and political categories
