AI and HR: What Happens When Algorithms Manage People?
What happens when algorithms — not people — decide who gets hired, promoted, or assigned the night shift?
In this debut episode of Work in Progress, Alessandro from the ILO Research Department speaks with Nikolai Rogovsky, Senior Economist at the ILO, about how artificial intelligence is transforming human resource management — and what it means for fairness, dignity, and the future of work.
With nearly 30 years at the ILO and a PhD from Wharton, Nikolai unpacks insights from ILO Working Paper No. 95, exploring how companies are using AI in hiring and workforce optimization — and the risks this poses to decent work.
