JCTU reaffirms commitment to protecting, representing and uplifting workers as more companies use AI

As the labour market enters an era driven by artificial intelligence and other technologies, the Jamaica Confederation of Trade Unions (JCTU) says it remains committed to its mission of protecting, representing and uplifting workers.

JCTU Vice President, Shamir Brown, made the reaffirmation at the Planning Institute of Jamaica’s Labour Market Forum this morning.

He stated that while the growing use of AI poses challenges for the workforce, such as job loss, there are opportunities where the sector can benefit.

He noted, however, that the benefits will not happen automatically or without proper and responsible planning.

Mr. Brown stressed that any AI policy being implemented must focus on workers, where they are retrained and not discarded.

He added that AI has the capacity to help address certain inequalities in the labour market.
