ST08_05 – AI, Big Data, Algorithmic Management and Emerging Tech in Human Resources Management, Employment Relations and Organizational Behaviour
AI and emerging technologies, such as robotics, algorithmic management, and big data analytics, are reshaping how work is allocated, performed, and managed. Many firms now use these tools to boost efficiency, agility, and support hybrid work models. While performance gains are evident, their effects on employees, managers, and workplace dynamics remain underexplored. Key concerns include impacts on health, job quality, autonomy, and fairness in algorithmic decision-making. Ethical issues surrounding transparency and accountability further complicate adoption. This track explores how AI and emerging tech affect core themes in Organizational Behavior (OB), Human Resource Management (HRM), and Employment Relations (ER).
