AI is changing how we work. For businesses, adopting AI means thinking about how it will be used, the people it will affect and how change will be managed.
The Guidance for AI Adoption, released last year, provides best practice for organisations on adopting and using AI safely and responsibly.
Now, new draft guidance from the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations takes a closer look how businesses and workers can plan for change, work together and build the skills needed as AI is introduced.
The draft Best practice guide on the adoption of AI in the workplace covers 3 areas:
- Plan: identify workplace needs and plan how AI could be introduced
- Enable: involve and support people as workplaces adopt AI
- Embed: put practices in place to support safe and sustainable AI use.
The guide was drafted with input from the AI Employment and Workplaces Forum, industry, employers, small business representatives, unions, government and academics.
