The &#8220;roadmap&#8221; is intended to ensure AI is implemented responsibly and ethically so as to enhance workers&#8217; job quality and safeguard their rights and well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/general\/AI-Principles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Artificial Intelligence and Worker Well-being: Principles and Best Practices for Developers and Employers<\/a> was developed in response to President Biden&#8217;s Executive Order calling for a coordinated approach to regulating the use of AI, including in employment. The DOL intends for the document to mitigate AI&#8217;s potential harms to workers&#8217; well-being while maximizing its potential benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Key principles in the roadmap include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-brightmine-list-item-spacing-small\">\n<li class=\"\">Ethically developing AI standards, reviewing processes and establishing governance structures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Ensuring that AI systems do not undermine or violate workers&#8217; labor and employment rights to organize, to health and safety, to wage and hour protections, and to discrimination and retaliation protections.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The use of AI and automation to replace workers was a key issue leading longshoremen and port workers to engage in a strike earlier this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The other principles in the DOL guidance are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-brightmine-list-item-spacing-small\">\n<li class=\"\">Ensuring meaningful human oversight for significant employment decisions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Being transparent with workers about the use of AI and identifying how AI can assist workers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Centering workers and their input on the use of AI in the workplace.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Providing AI training for workers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Securing and protecting worker data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In her introduction to the guidance, Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su noted that human agency will determine how AI is used, for whose benefit and to what ends. &#8220;The Department of Labor will remain vigilant in protecting workers from the potential harms of AI, while at the same time recognizing that this is a moment of tremendous opportunity,&#8221; Su said. &#8220;Whether AI in the workplace creates harm for workers and deepens inequality or supports workers and unleashes expansive opportunity depends (in large part) on the decisions we make.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column lnrs-hide-block-on-mobile is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"
