| the tech worker handbook: The Cambridge Handbook of Technology and Employee Behavior Richard N. Landers, 2019-02-14 Experts from across all industrial-organizational (IO) psychology describe how increasingly rapid technological change has affected the field. In each chapter, authors describe how this has altered the meaning of IO research within a particular subdomain and what steps must be taken to avoid IO research from becoming obsolete. This Handbook presents a forward-looking review of IO psychology's understanding of both workplace technology and how technology is used in IO research methods. Using interdisciplinary perspectives to further this understanding and serving as a focal text from which this research will grow, it tackles three main questions facing the field. First, how has technology affected IO psychological theory and practice to date? Second, given the current trends in both research and practice, could IO psychological theories be rendered obsolete? Third, what are the highest priorities for both research and practice to ensure IO psychology remains appropriately engaged with technology moving forward? |

In fact, data’s importance should earn it a spot at the center of our thinking and strategy around building a better, more ethical world. It’s use—and misuse—lies at the heart of many of the racist, gendered, classist, and otherwise oppressive practices of modern tech. In Data Conscience: Algorithmic Siege on our Humanity, computer science and data inclusivity thought leader Dr. Brandeis Hill Marshall delivers a call to action for rebel tech leaders, who acknowledge and are prepared to address the current limitations of software development. In the book, Dr. Brandeis Hill Marshall discusses how the philosophy of “move fast and break things” is, itself, broken, and requires change.

| the tech worker handbook: Recreating Creativity, Reinventing Inventiveness Nikos Koutras, Niloufer Selvadurai, 2024-04-02 As artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used to generate inventions and creative works, a critical question to be addressed is whether intellectual property (IP) laws should protect such works. This book examines the critical question of whether intellectual property laws should protect works generated by artificial intelligence. If we do not wish to use IP laws to protect such works, how can we still support research, development, and innovation in society? If we do wish to use IP laws to protect such works, should the copyright, patents, and other IP rights attach to the human creator of the AI technology or the AI system? The book explores these compelling societal, economic, and legal issues. The authors evaluate the continuing relevance of existing laws, explore the divergent approaches being debated by nations around the world, and present visions for change. The book will enable both lawyers and non-lawyers to reimagine governance frameworks to create laws that equitably balance the interests of creators, investors, and end users of AI-generated works. |

| the tech worker handbook: How to Protect Yourself from Killer Computers Junade Ali, Katarina Naskovski, 2024-04-08 Catastrophic computer failures have led to aircraft entering ‘death dives’, fatal car crashes and killer radiation overdoses in hospitals. Advances in Artificial Intelligence and the UK Post Office Horizon IT scandal have further raised public concern, as an ongoing, previously unreported scandal involving TV Licensing appears to be unfolding. Computer scientist, Dr Junade Ali, peels back the layers of cover-up, negligence and wrongdoing to uncover how killer computers are born and how everyone can protect themselves. “Three quarters of software engineers reporting wrongdoing in their workplace have faced some kind of retaliation” - The Register “Junade Ali's research has also found basic problems shared across various sectors.” - The Independent “Through the years, Ali became adept at not only software engineering but understanding how software engineers work. In addition to developer burnout, he’s focused on quality, continuous improvement and psychological safety in the workplace.” - EE Times “His many contributions to IT security include developing cyber security techniques that have been adopted in products built by Apple and Google, and developing software to help de-escalate cyber warfare situations.” - Computer Weekly It’s a timely warning for businesses and other organisations of all shapes and sizes. - Forbes |

| the tech worker handbook: Impact Engineering (Complete Omnibus) Junade Ali, 2024-07-14 “This has touched a nerve” - The Register This is a book people don’t want you to read. In “How to Protect Yourself from Killer Computers”, Dr Junade Ali peeled back the layers of cover-up, negligence and wrongdoing to uncover how killer computers are born and how everyone can protect themselves, as the powerful institutions implicated attempted to shutdown coverage of the case studies. Then in “Impact Engineering”, Dr Ali took on the “cult following” of the Agile software development methodology with new research into what truly enables success in software projects alongside personal and organisational transformations. Ferocious shutdown attempts including stalking led to the book becoming an Amazon Best Seller on launch week. Now, this Complete Omnibus edition of “Impact Engineering” contains both previous books alongside a new epilogue closing the work. “Leaders that fail to deal with such failures transparently leave their organisations vulnerable to existential risk.” - Forbes “Junade Ali's research has also found basic problems shared across various sectors.” - The Independent “Through the years, Ali became adept at not only software engineering but understanding how software engineers work. In addition to developer burnout, he’s focused on quality, continuous improvement and psychological safety in the workplace.” - EE Times “With a decade’s experience building high-reliability systems for critical applications in transport and other industries, Ali has seen all too often how institutions double down on the assumption that they are correct” - Australian Computer Society Information Age “His many contributions to IT security include developing cyber security techniques that have been adopted in products built by Apple and Google, and developing software to help de-escalate cyber warfare situations.” - Computer Weekly |

Bouaphakeo, 136 S. Ct. 1036 (2016). Executive Order 13706, signed on Labor Day 2015, takes effect in 2017. It requires federal contractors to allow employees to accrue at least one hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, and unused sick leave can be carried over from year to year. Mid-2016 DOL regulations make millions more white-collar employees eligible for overtime pay, by greatly increasing the salary threshold for the white-collar exemption. Updates on the PATH Act (Protecting Americans From Tax Hikes; Pub. L. No. 114-113. The DOL published the fiduciary rule in final form in April 2016, with full compliance scheduled for January 1, 2018. The rule makes it clear that brokers who are paid to offer guidance on retirement accounts and Individual Retirement Arrangements (IRAs) are fiduciaries. In early 2016, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced it would allow charging parties to request copies of the employer's position statement in response to the charge. The Supreme Court ruled that, in constructive discharge timing requirements run from the date the employee gives notice of his or her resignation--not the effective date of the resignation.
