At the second European Employment & Social Rights Forum, a wide range of stakeholders and experts will assess the current challenges and opportunities brought about by artificial intelligence in the world of work. The forum will take place on 16 and 17 November in Brussels.

Rapid technological transformation and new digital technologies bring forth new work opportunities. They create new jobs for people, widen access to education, boost productivity, and improve our efficiency. Yet, these advancements also underscore growing inequality and a lack of transparency across the world.  How do we ensure fairness, inclusivity and transparency as we navigate this new world of work?
