AI's Promise and Perils in the Workplace
-
AI presents opportunities to automate tasks but also risks exacerbating inequalities if not managed carefully. Studies show high risk of job losses and need for workers to shift professions.
-
AI adoption is currently lower in emerging markets, which could widen global inequality. Companies should view labor as an asset rather than purely a cost.
-
AI can identify and help mitigate workplace inequalities through analyzing datasets to uncover issues. It can also assess risks like child labor in supply chains.
-
AI can assist with regulatory compliance on labor laws and standards across multiple jurisdictions.
-
AI can generate sustainability reports and interactive platforms to enhance stakeholder engagement on labor practices.
