This chapter carries out extensive review of literature on the 4th Industrial Revolution. In the last decades, many stakeholders such as industries, governments, employers and employers' organisations, workers and their unions, and academics have expressed divergent opinion of the 4th Industrial Revolution. The 4th industrial revolution is the 4th stage of a mechanical movement process that began towards the end of the 18th century where mechanised production replaced manual production process. Research shows that the 4th Industrial Revolution brought about ‘disruptive technologies' such as artificial intelligence, robotics, blockchain, and 3D printing, which transforms social, economic, and political systems, often in unpredictable ways.
