The Committee on Employment and Social Affairs of the European Parliament recently published a draft report on digitalisation, AI and algorithmic management in the workplace. It makes a number of recommendations including for a directive specifically regulating ‘algorithmic management’ in the workplace with protections extending to self-employed individuals in addition to workers. There are a number of steps in the EU legislative process before these proposals could become legally binding. Given their significance, including the broad definition of ‘algorithmic management’, impacted organisations should nevertheless monitor if and how they develop.
