Organizations and AI: Are Employees in the Know?

According to the study, 73% employees in India report that their organizations employ AI in the workplace, but only 47% employees completely and 44% employees somewhat understand how it’s used.

Commenting on this, Sumeet Doshi, Country Manager at UKG India, said “There is a clear appetite for AI in the workplace as long as employees better understand how it’s used and the benefits. Employees in India rise to the top of that sentiment with 88% wanting to be more accepting of AI while expecting their organisation to be more transparent around use of AI. AI can be effectively leveraged to positively improve organizations from recruitment to the day-to-day operations. One of the examples is deploying AI to identify cases of bias at work like sweetheart scheduling, which otherwise could have gone undetected. There are many more use cases around establishing pro-active controls for compliance, facilitate a flexible work-time arrangement that balances productivity with meeting employee expectations etc. All this is not just good for business but also leads to happier outcomes for all.”
