Questions Include* What do you mean when you talk about the "ethical use of people data, analytics, and artificial intelligence; for the benefit of individuals, teams, groups, organizations, and society at large"?* There's plenty of tech out there attempting to 'spy' on employees such as accessing their social media accounts and reporting back behaviors incongruous with an employer's brand. Do companies have a right to 'intrude' on an employee's social media accounts if it means they can potentially identify employees with extremist views and other outlooks not in keeping with a company's mission and values? * What about remote monitoring of employee behavior? Where do you stand on the tech that allows companies to monitor employee work behaviors - used on the premise that it's to ensure people are not 'slacking off'? Surely the last 18 months has proven that productivity is more important than hours served? * What happens to employee data when they leave a company? Can employers hold on to, for example, web browsing behavior on company-owned devices or should that information be deleted upon the termination of the employee's contract? We do our best to ensure editorial objectivity.
