The project aims at looking into the current opportunities and challenges of using AI in the working processes of the public sector from the workers’ perspective. The two most essential themes in this regard are transparency and education and training. From both social partners’ perspective, reducing repetitive tasks, cost- and time-savings and so forth can be very beneficial. The use of AI must be regarded as trustworthy by workers managing and carrying out such tasks, and in order to ensure trust on the side of workers, they need to be well-informed, and they need to be sure that their rights are respected. Transparency requires the active involvement and information of workers’ representatives. With regards to education and training, the project aims at informing and training workers regarding ethical questions and a human-centric approach to AI.
