In the USA, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) is releasing a public request for information (RFI) to learn more about the automated tools used by employers to surveil, monitor, evaluate, and manage workers. The main arguments of the RFI are that automated tools used by employers to surveil, monitor, evaluate, and manage workers should be better understood, that the federal government should respond to any relevant risks and opportunities associated with these tools, and that best practices should be shared with employers, worker organizations, technology vendors, developers, and others in civil society. The RFI is intended to advance the government's understanding of the design, deployment, prevalence, and impacts of automated tools, to inform new policy responses, to share relevant research, data, and findings with the public, and to amplify best practices among employers, worker organisations, technology vendors, developers, and others in civil society. To that end, the RFI proposes to gather workers' firsthand experiences with surveillance technologies, details from employers, technology developers, and vendors on how they develop, sell, and use these technologies, best practices for mitigating risks to workers, relevant data and research, and ideas for how the federal government should respond to any relevant risks and opportunities.
