Bossware and Algorithmic Management Panel @ FAccT

In recent years, accelerated by the global pandemic, employers in all economic sectors, from low wage to high tech, have introduced computational tools that reduce workers' digital and physical autonomy, while transferring value from employees to employers, and risk in the other direction. This keynote panel, featuring scholars from across STS, law, computer science and philosophy, will explore the rise of bossware and algorithmic management, highlighting not only the key empirical trends, but also their underlying causes, and how workers, researchers, and regulators can fight back.

This panel discussion, curated and chaired by Seth Lazar, featured insights from Frederik Zuiderveen Borgesius, Min Kyung Lee, Wilneida Negrón, and Rida Qadri. Watch the whole session here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeUkUzCFsz4
