Unions call for stricter AI restrictions in workplaces
Peak Union, employers should provide occupational safety and transparency while applying artificial intelligence in the workplace.
ACTU calls more challenging arrangements during the release of artificial intelligence in workplaces to protect the jobs.
Next month, a federal economic reform ACTU at the round table meeting, employers will call for a new artificial application agreement that should give to workers.
He wants to force employers to consult their staff before entering new artificial technology workplaces.
“Artificial intelligence can provide benefits if well -trained and well -supported workers in the use of AI,” ACTU Deputy Secretary Joseph Mitchell said on Tuesday. He said.
“This cannot be realized without the knowledge, experience, creativity and skills of the workers brought to the implementation process.”
Agreements should include occupational safety guarantees, skill development and re -training, transparency, privacy and data collection guards on the use of technology.
Agreements should also be supported by a national artificial intelligence authority and legislation to ensure that the laws adapt to technological changes.
Mitchell, “Basic concerns such as occupational safety is left unprotected, working people will not embrace artificial intelligence,” he said.
“If there is no artificial intelligence implementation contract with an employer’s workers, the company should not be suitable for government financing such as research and development incentives or government contracts.”
The round table, hosted by Treasurer Jim Chalmers, will take place for three days in August.
The focus will be to increase productivity, increase economic resistance and strengthen the sustainability of the country’s budget.
Business leaders, trade unions, government members and experts will contribute to the round table.
Opposition Industrial Relations Spokesman Tim Wilson said the government would try to run workers to the union instead of embracing technology in workplaces.
“The solution is to claim or prevent the solution,” he said to Sky News.
“There is a simple reality: artificial intelligence here. Creates opportunities and difficulties
“What is the lock will lead to this difficulty and will we be a part of the solution?”
