Oxfam America
Mitigating Gender Bias in AI & Women Warehouse Workers
We propose a community-based human rights impact assessment, centered in worker experience, scalable through worker organizations and an App addressing AI bias harming women workers.
AI systems deployed in warehouses without proper human rights due diligence disproportionately harm women workers through biased algorithmic scheduling, productivity monitoring, and biometric design. Oxfam will customize our community based human rights impact assessment (COBHRA) tool for AI workplace technologies and develop a mobile Worker App enabling workers to safely document harms in real-time. This will generate comprehensive evidence, strengthen worker advocacy capacity, and drive companies and investors toward responsible AI practices protecting worker rights.
