Add your voice: the first global study of AI in union work

Over the last year, I have talked to hundreds of people working at unions, from London to Sydney. I’ve heard of widespread AI use among union staff.

Some of this AI usage is open… but much of it is hidden. Hidden from other staff, and from union leaders.

Secret usage of AI isn’t just a problem for trade unions - it is happening in lots of organisations.

But unions have a special responsibility. If we are to stand up for workers in the AI age, we must first understand our own relationship with this technology.

That’s why I ask you to do two things today:

1. Take the survey yourself.

2. Share the survey with your colleagues so that we can get an accurate figure.

The survey is available here: https://unions21.fillout.com/2025-ai-survey

Thank you for your help!
