‘How do algorithms and AI reshape workplaces and the world?’ Flickr album

Photo album of the ‘How do algorithms and AI reshape workplaces and the world?’ event in Helskinki.

At this event we presented the conclusions of the Finnish side of the Computer in command: Consequences of algorithmic management for workers conducted by FEPS and Nordic think tanks among over 6,000 union members in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and Finland, authored by Jere Immonen. We also counted with the distinguished presence of Uma Rani (ILO), Johannes Anttila (Demos Helsinki), Antti Rinne (SAMAK), and Miapetra Kumpula-Natri (MP) as discussants in this ever-relevant examination of the impact of Algorithmic Management on Finnish workplaces.

This event was part of the Digital Research Programme

FEPS, Tankesmedjan Tiden, Kalevi Sorsa Saatio, Tankesmien Agenda, CEVEA, Arbejderbevægelsens Erhvervsråd (ECLM), Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Nordics and Cooperation Committee of the Nordic Labour Movement (SAMAK), with the support of Nordic trade Unions, came together for a Digital Research Programme to discuss the research questions, methods and approaches of the different research strands:

1. Algorithmic management and governance (prevalence & consequences)
2. Workers’ experience at the workplace – surveys and focus groups
3. Online platforms and employment terms
