AI Now is back with Part 2 on AI’s impact for the workforce, and this time we hear about the widespread use and risks of AI‑driven performance and monitoring tools, Australia’s first AI-specific workplace safety laws, and why governance - particularly at board level following the Star decision – is a live issue. 

Employment law expert Cilla Robinson joins co-hosts Cheng Lim and Bryony Evans to talk about:

• When AI performance tools cross the line - including where ‘people are effectively being managed by an algorithm’ - and where they can add genuine value
• The three things boards should add to their next agenda
• Why it’s important to keep decision-making paper trails – and the tension between fast-moving technologists and lawyers
• What the new duty in NSW means and what to watch as SafeWork NSW guidance and consultation develops, including permit-holder right of entry to inspect these systems - as Cilla puts it, ‘your algorithm is now part of your work system in the same way as any other hazard that needs to be considered from a safety perspective’
• And more!
