Summary/Abstract: Work is a defining activity for individuals and also a major preoccupation for organizations, stake holders, governments and states. The actual global world is confronted with alert changes, introduction of new, smart technologies that can ease the work for some employees, facilitate access to many products for large categories of population, but can also scare some others because they may fear losing their jobs. Besides individuals, organizations are also confronted with such transformations, trying to keep up with the competition, preparing, motivating and retaining their human resources. Given the actual global context, defined as a rapid changing one, faced with unexpected events, like the spread of coronavirus or significant migratory flows, this paper sets to explore the transformations regarding the work domain, their challenging impact on career construction and the contribution of career counseling theories in mitigating such aspects.
