AbstractThe expected future impact of the fourth industrial revolution is a hotly debated issue in the literature. The majority of papers focus on quantifying the expected impacts on labour demand, or on a specific country, or on huge macro-regions – and the estimates differ widely. Our paper focuses on the impact assessment of Industry 4.0 on the expected structure of employment, wages and inequalities in Hungary. We built a static microsimulation model for our analysis, where the "EU Survey of Income and Living Conditions Hungary 2017" dataset was used as a starting point. Projections by the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP) were used for policy simulations on future employment by sector and by occupational group for each European Union (EU) member state. The analysis also elaborates our own augmented vision about the expected labour demand changes and expected wage trends. Based on this information, the spill-over effects were calculated regarding wage structure and inequalities by sector, region and the highest educational attainment.

The official domestic ideas for solving the problem of poverty primarily moving within the frame of a work-based society. In our hypothesize that in an average economic period would be needed a different viewpoint among people who are able for work and are motivated. It is an eternal truth that people with lower education have to work more to make a living. Therefore, they often do not have time to develop themselves and to build and maintain supportive relationships that would keep them within society in the event of an existential difficulty. Thus, if they lose their jobs, they easily drift to the margins of society, become homeless, fall victim, or be criminalized. We therefore agree with that the housing problem is solved by housing and not work. However the solution to self-development and the building of retaining, supportive social relations is the leisure time that is not available to the strata who are forced to overwork in order to ensure a livelihood. We therefore consider it is necessary to provide those kind of programs for vulnerable groups that makes this free time available, by providing them some additional support. Our study examines the question, through analyzing a pilot program, of what kind of framework and which role of using basic income guarantee in a program aim to handle the poverty can be.

The paper presents a project based on the complex case management model aimed at improving the labour market position of permanently unemployed clients. The aim of the case management is to improve the employee skills and capabilities of the clients in order to assist them in getting a job on the open labor market. The model builds on fast, action-oriented interventions, and the principle of the voluntary participation of clients. The process is time-limited, which the goal of reaching certain developmental objectives during a defined time period. We present a case study as an example of this model.
