Abstract

This paper aims to enhance the understanding of Industry 5.0 by introducing an innovative AI-based methodology that proficiently maps employer expressions related to well-being using job postings. This process involves creating a comprehensive dictionary of well-being expressions, which is then compared with existing academic literature. This approach facilitates empirical well-being analysis from employers’ perspectives. Bridging theoretical and practical realms, we offer valuable insights to academia and industry about well-being (human-centricity) interpretation by employers. The findings highlight UK employers’ prioritisation of self-realisation and a positive work atmosphere to attract job seekers. Nonetheless, many vacancies do not explicitly emphasise well-being to attract potential workers.
