It's about balancing competitiveness and social rights.
You are spot on.
Because as Draghi said, there is no competitiveness without quality employment, without quality jobs.
And many of the shortages that we see in many sectors are about the working conditions.
But it's not just about the current types of employment that we see.
It's also about the future of work.
And you've mentioned AI, algorithmic management, which is
not going to change many types of jobs and skill sets but it does change labor relations workers relations with their bosses when we have ai as an assistant is one discussion when you're looking at ai as a boss because we have algorithms that sometimes manage activities or assess activities then it's a different story so what the commission is doing is on the one side
investing, pushing on innovation in AI, pushing on deployment and diffusion of AI in Europe.
And this is extremely important.
But in order to have this diffusion and uptake of AI throughout our industries, in all company contexts, small or large,
We need to create trustworthy environments for workers and for employers alike.
So the quality jobs route will look and will ask this question.
Do we have enough protections for workers when the algorithm is in charge or do we need to create a framework that enables this kind of protection?
this kind of work environment.
And I need to mention this today, we also launched this first phase consultation for a potential quality jobs act.
So it's not just the strategy that we launched today on employment, but it's also asking social partners what we need to do in the sense of legislative initiative.
Look, no, no.
The idea is not to create more burden for companies.
We need to keep them agile.
