TUC generative AI policy toolkit

This Generative AI toolkit was produced by tech and legal consultancy AWO for the Trades Union Congress.

Generative AI is being introduced into workplaces of all types, bringing with it potential changes to many individual jobs, and to the demand for skills and roles around the organisation. Establishing clarity and negotiating effective and fair policies around this will be important to many union branches.

The toolkit aims to help reps and staff dig into the detail of policies introduced by employers around using Generative AI in the workplace, or to help negotiate policies that could better serve members' interests. 

It introduces key concepts around Generative AI, its use in the workplace, main issues and considerations relevant to the workplace and a discussion of legal and regulatory regimes. 

It also offers an initial checklist to be used by union representatives and anyone involved in devising organisational policies for the use of AI.

Generative AI is a fast-changing technology, and this guide engages with a variety of sources including academic research, investigations, media coverage and commentary, and policy analysis.
