DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Tapiwa Chagonda (University of Johannesburg)\nDebate
 s on the 4IR are raging within the academy\, as scholars endeavor to grapp
 le with the pros and cons of this revolution. Within the labour market\, f
 ears have been expressed by scholars on how the 4IR might disrupt the trad
 itional work environment as we have known it\, as some of the semi-skilled
  and even skilled office workers might end up being made redundant by tech
 nology and robots. It is the contention of this paper that in the midst of
  all these fears of retrenchments within the labour market\, as a conseque
 nce of 4IR\, the ‘illegal’ and deportable migrants who work in the low
 er rungs of the labour market are more likely to remain unscathed and to b
 e retained within South Africa’s labour market\, as compared to semi-ski
 lled and skilled migrant workers who might be properly documented.\n\nhttp
