Özet

The opportunity of the internet in terms of eliminating the distance and the

ability to instantly transfer large data influence many areas of life, and deeply affect industrial

production and processes. High-tech manufacturing operations feel these changes

earlier. It is inevitable for the enterprises operating with traditional technologies to be

exposed to this effect in parallel with the change of environmental structure. In this study,

the concept of Industry 4.0 is considered as a concept and secondly how human resources

managers perceive this process from the viewpoint of human resources management of

the four advanced technology companies operating in the Bursa region is investigated. An

in-depth interview method was used to gather information in the study. As a result of the

research, the expectation is that the Industrial 4.0 transformation of the industry will deeply

affect human resources management processes due to its business environment. At each

stage, it is foreseen that technology-integrated business processes will cause some of the

unskilled employees to lose their jobs, while the higher qualified employees will be needed

more, but it will be difficult to find these employees and keep them at work.
