Resumo: |
This paper aims to provide an update on the theory of human capital, a widely recognized theoretical approach that seeks to explain the relationship between education, skills, and economic productivity. Since its original conception, proposed by Gary Becker in the 1960s, the theory of human capital has been extensively debated and applied in different contexts. However, considering the rapid social, technological, and economic transformations that have occurred in recent decades, it is crucial to critically examine this theory in light of contemporary changes. The work concludes that the theory of human capital is a vital pillar in the economy and human resource management, standing out for its emphasis on individual skills, knowledge, and experiences. Its evolution reflects a more holistic and comprehensive understanding of human capital, adapting to the demands of a constantly changing world. Essential for educational policy planning and strategic management in organizations, the theory underscores the critical importance of continuous education and professional development to maintain competitiveness and adaptability to technological innovations and economic changes. Furthermore, in the context of globalization and technological revolution, the theory emphasizes the imperative need for constant skill updating to remain relevant in the labor market. The theory also addresses the interrelationship between human capital, equity, and social inclusion, highlighting the importance of equal access to education and professional development as means to mitigate socioeconomic disparities and foster inclusive and sustainable economic growth. However, its practical implementation faces significant challenges, including the need for substantial investments and cultural changes in the educational and business sectors, as well as combating inequalities in access to education. Therefore, effective application of the theory requires strategic collaboration among governments, educational institutions, businesses, and civil society |
