AI and unions are heading for a collision. Less grandstanding, more data. Less bureaucracy, more direct power for workers.

IA e sindicatos: o futuro da negociação trabalhista
Como IA e sindicatos entram em choque: dados, auditoria e voto direto podem modernizar negociações trabalhistas — e ameaçar a velha burocracia sindical.

When algorithms become "managers".
Our open access paper in HRMJ explores a fundamental question—can workers form meaningful psychological contracts with algorithms instead of human supervisors?

Sen. McNerney's "No Robo Bosses Act" aims to ensure that human judgment is at the heart of employment decisions, challenging the rise of automated systems that can perpetuate bias and errors.

Committee advances SB 947 to require human review of firing and discipline assisted by algorithms
Sen. McNerney’s SB 947 would require meaningful human review before automated systems can make final firing, discipline or deactivation decisions and ban predictive-behavior analysis; labor unions supported the bill and business groups opposed it as overly broad. The committee approved the bill (4–1) and referred it to privacy and consumer protection.
