Institute of Employment Rights, £10, £5 download
IER booklets have for years provided an authoritative analysis of employment rights issues and, in some instances, have pointed the way forward and helped draft future employment legislation.
IER’s new pamphlet, Algorithmic Management And A New Generation Of Rights At Work, written by Dr Joe Atkinson (University of Southampton) and Professor Philippa Collins (University of Bristol) is one such booklet that all incoming Labour MPs should read, along with the TUC’s draft Artificial Intelligence (Employment and Regulation) Bill.
