Data and Democracy at Work: Advanced Information Technologies, Labor Law, and the New Working Class Rogers Brishen
An exploration of how major companies have used advanced information technologies to limit worker power, and how labor law reform could reverse that trend.As our economy has shifted away from industrial production and service industries have become dominant, many of the nation's largest employers are now in fields like retail, food service, logistics, and hospitality. Data and Democracy at Work argues that companies often use new data-driven technologies as a power resource--or even a tool of class domination--and that our labor laws allow them to do so.Employers have established broad rights to use technology to gather data on workers and their performance, to exclude others from accessing that data, These companies have turned to data-driven surveillance technologies that operate over a vast distance, enabling cheaper oversight of massive numbers of workers.
