China’s State Council General Office has urged companies to reduce worker disruption as they adopt artificial intelligence, laying out advance-notice and job-transition measures for large-scale deployments to limit employment displacement. The guidance, made public Oct. 23 and dated Oct. 16, calls for carefully managing the scope, intensity and pace of AI adoption in labor-intensive industries. It says companies should seek to reduce the impact on workers as they expand AI use. Companies are encouraged to explore a buffer period for workers facing possible job losses.
