What is AI, and why does it matter to workers? Employers are rapidly adopting new digital technologies that have significant impacts on workers – from work speed-up and deskilling to automation, discrimination, and hiring, firing, and management by algorithms. Employers are also using digital technologies to surveil and profile workers and prevent them from organizing unions. But technology and its impacts are not inevitable. How can we make sure that technology works for workers?

Join us for a three-part webinar series that will cut through the AI hype to help better understand digital technologies in the workplace and how to respond through collective bargaining and public policy.

Part 3: Collective Bargaining and Digital Technologies
Wednesday, June 18, 10am–11am PT
This webinar with the Communication Workers of America and NewsGuild of New York explores how unions are addressing workplace technologies at the bargaining table. It features findings from the UC Berkeley Labor Center’s new research on technology agreements, highlights union experiences from the field, and provides concrete examples of bargaining strategies and contract provisions.
