    Réglementation et avenir du travail: la relation de travail facilite l'innovation
    (Wiley, 2020-04-02) Aloisi, Antonio; De Stefano, Valerio; FWO Research Foundation de Flandes; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    La transformation numérique et la réorganisation des entreprises font apparaître de nouvelles modalités de travail fort éloignées de la relation de travail typique. Selon les partisans de la rupture numérique, le cadre juridique actuel n'est pas adapté aux formes de travail et modèles d'entreprises «innovants». Pourtant, la réglementation du travail peut faciliter l'innovation et la flexibilité, comme l'emploi typique peut être un moyen d'améliorer l'efficacité et de réduire les coûts. En effet, la relation de travail permet le plein exercice des prérogatives de l'employeur et le déploiement interne de la main-d'œuvre; c'est aussi un bon moyen d'assurer formation et montée des compétences.

    Il tuo capo è un algoritmo : contro il lavoro disumano
    (Editori Laterza, 2020) De Stefano, Valerio; Aloisi, Antonio; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Automazione, algoritmi, piattaforme, smart working: il mondo del lavoro sta vivendo una vera e propria rivoluzione. La paura è che crolli il numero degli occupati e che il lavoro umano venga riconosciuto e apprezzato sempre meno. Si teme la capacità di controllo dei software di intelligenza artificiale. Ma non esistono tecnologie buone e tecnologie cattive; esistono usi distorti e usi consapevoli delle invenzioni e delle innovazioni. La tecnologia cambia rapidamente e incide in profondità in tutti gli ambiti, con esiti spesso preoccupanti. È quello che accade al mondo del lavoro, tra trasformazione digitale, utilizzo dei robot e dell'intelligenza artificiale e diffusione delle piattaforme. Che cosa sta accadendo alle professioni che non sono state spazzate via dalla tecnologia? Come ci si confronta con strumenti di sorveglianza dei lavoratori sempre più pervasivi? Quante possibilità ci sono che il modello della gig-economy si affermi come nuovo paradigma produttivo? Che cosa potranno fare le parti sociali e le forze politiche per mettere in campo protezioni efficaci? La qualità del lavoro presente e futuro dipende da come esso è concepito, contrattato e organizzato. La trasformazione digitale può essere infatti un alleato indispensabile, dalla fabbrica alla scrivania, dal magazzino all'ufficio, ma va messa alla prova sul terreno della convenienza sociale e politica e non solo su quello della convenienza economica. Questo libro è uno strumento prezioso per orientarsi con coordinate precise sui nuovi scenari, sui rischi che corriamo e sulle scelte necessarie per affrontare il futuro.

    Your Boss Is an Algorithm Artificial Intelligence, Platform Work and Labour
    (Bloomsbury, 2022-07-14) Aloisi, Antonio; De Stefano, Valerio; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    What effect do robots, algorithms, and online platforms have on the world of work? Using case studies and examples from across the EU, the UK, and the US, this book provides a compass to navigate this technological transformation as well as the regulatory options available, and proposes a new map for the era of radical digital advancements. From platform work to the gig-economy and the impact of artificial intelligence, algorithmic management, and digital surveillance on workplaces, technology has overwhelming consequences for everyone's lives, reshaping the labour market and straining social institutions. Contrary to preliminary analyses forecasting the threat of human work obsolescence, the book demonstrates that digital tools are more likely to replace managerial roles and intensify organisational processes in workplaces, rather than opening the way for mass job displacement. Can flexibility and protection be reconciled so that legal frameworks uphold innovation? How can we address the pervasive power of AI-enabled monitoring? How likely is it that the gig-economy model will emerge as a new organisational paradigm across sectors? And what can social partners and political players do to adopt effective regulation? Technology is never neutral. It can and must be governed, to ensure that progress favours the many. Digital transformation can be an essential ally, from the warehouse to the office, but it must be tested in terms of social and political sustainability, not only through the lenses of economic convenience. Your Boss Is an Algorithm offers a guide to explore these new scenarios, their promises, and perils.

    Máquinas, algoritmos, plataformas digitales Facultades ampliadas y libertades virtuales. Notas sobre el futuro (del derecho) del trabajo
    (Tirant lo Blanch, 2020-05) Aloisi, Antonio; De Stefano, Valerio; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Seguramente puede decirse que las evoluciones actuales no presentan caracteres de linealidad. Esto, combinado con la naturaleza intrínsecamente cambiante de algunos fenómenos y las sinergias prometedoras entre los diferentes vectores de cambio, hace que todas las predicciones sean frágiles y, al mismo tiempo, nos desanima a mirar al pasado en busca de respuestas cíclicas. Por lo tanto, es conveniente volver a calibrar el enfoque de la discusión sobre el futuro del trabajo, tratando de descifrar las consecuencias de la automatización, la digitalización y de la plataformalización desde un punto de vista cualitativo. Las metamorfosis más profundas, como explica Eurofound, requieren a menudo una adecuación de las prácticas empresariales, de las infraestructuras sociales e incluso del marco institucional. Para hacerlo, es necesario abandonar cualquier visión ideológica de la promesa tecnológica, ya sea ésta apologética o apocalíptica. Sobre todo, es necesario realizar un esfuerzo analítico para evaluar secularmente los elementos de continuidad y discontinuidad, antes de emprender acciones judiciales y regulatorias. Las máquinas, los algoritmos y las plataformas constituyen un objetivo móvil; por lo tanto, es necesario que el legislador, los jueces, los emprendedores y las organizaciones sindicales valoren las virtudes de resiliencia del marco normativo laboral y traten de tejer una red de coherencia entre las opciones de las empresas y el marco normativo regulatorio.

    Essential jobs, remote work and digital surveillance: Addressing the COVID-19 pandemic panopticon
    (Wiley, 2021-06-19) Aloisi, Antonio; De Stefano, Valerio; European Union's Horizon 2020; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    An unprecedented COVID-19-induced explosion in digital surveillance has reconfigured power relationships in professional settings. This article critically concentrates on the interplay between technology-enabled intrusive monitoring and the augmentation of managerial prerogatives in physical and digital workplaces. It identifies excessive supervision as the common denominator of “essential” and “remotable” activities, besides discussing the various drawbacks faced by the two categories of workers during (and after) the pandemic. It also assesses the adequacy of the current European Union legal framework in addressing the expansion of data-driven management. Social dialogue, workers' empowerment and digital literacy are identified as effective ways to promote organizational flexibility, well-being and competitiveness.

    Deus ex Machina Boss: Managerial Powers in Workplaces Governed by Algorithms and Artificial Intelligence
    (Nomos, 2023) Aloisi, Antonio; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Is the existing legal framework capable of responding to the phenomenon of so-called "algorithmic bosses"? What will happen if technology ultimately disrupts the traditional boundaries of managerial powers that are, in principle, considered lawful? This study aims to examine the extent to which digital automation has led to the expansion of the organizational, supervisory, and disciplinary privileges already available to employers and managerial staff. Using plain language, the study is structured into four sections. Section 2 explores the purposes of the employment relationship and clarifies the notion of the authoritative position held by employers. Section 3 presents the most prevalent artificial intelligence and algorithmic technologies currently entering the workplace; it is argued in this section that, despite their diverse applications, a common denominator lies in their capacity to record and process information that may be used to support managerial staff in making executive decisions. Section 4 identifies the risks that arise when managerial privileges are expanded through the adoption of automated decision-making, as mandatory legal provisions, procedural safeguards, and compensatory mechanisms stemming from collective bargaining are subject to continuous pressure. Adopting a multidimensional approach, this section proposes remedial measures derived from data protection law and anti-discrimination regulations, which—when combined with labor law—could serve to rein in the power of algorithmic bosses. Section 5 offers some concluding observations.

    J.K. v TP S.A. and the ‘Universal’ Scope of EU Anti-Discrimination Law at Work: A Paradigm Shift?
    (Oxford, 2023-10-05) Aloisi, Antonio; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Case C-356/21 J.K. v TP S.A. has been hailed as a transformative step forward in defining the personal scope of application of European anti-discrimination law and, potentially, determining the wider construction of labour rights.1 Its significance relates to several aspects. First, the ruling clarified the personal scope of application of Directive 2000/78/EC concerning equal treatment in employment and occupation,2 which the Court considered to explicitly extend to self-employed workers such as the claimant, an audio–visual editor engaged by one client via multiple short-term contracts. Second, it asserted that refusal to conclude or renew a contract for services with a freelancer on the grounds of their sexual orientation falls within the prohibition of discrimination contained in Directive 2000/78/EC. Third, it stated that Polish law has failed to implement the Framework Directive correctly due to permitting a derogation from the general prohibition of discrimination based on sexual orientation that is purported to be justified by the need to protect the rights and freedoms of others (that is to say, the parties’ freedom of contract).
