In the Future Office of Work, visitors can experience a slightly different kind of office. In various departments, the uncertainties about the future of work are tinkered with in a conscientious manner. The project took its first steps within the framework of Graz Culture Year 2020. We have been working very hard for a long time not to need to work any more. And now we are faced with the dilemma of not having to work any more. But why is that a problem? The disappearance of many jobs is a natural consequence of the rapid technological progress of recent decades. But the fear of no longer having a job in the classical sense has a lot to do with our political culture, our economic system and our cultural values related to work: The „Zukunftsamt der Arbeit“ was open for the first time in Graz from 1 October to 11 October 2020. In the coming years, the Wanderamt will be on display and open to visitors in various cities and municipalities.
