Multiplier case: AI implementation with employee involvement
Gebr. Eickhoff Maschinenfabrik and Eisengießerei GmbH
Summary
Based on the HUMAINE Toolbox content from GA RUB/IGM, the co-determination dialogues and
based on–works agreement on AI, it is intended that in the
multiplier case based Gebr. Eickhoff Maschinenfabrik u. Eisengießerei GmbH, in
collaboration with the management, the works council and in-house experts, a,
negotiable draft of a (framework) works agreement on the use of AI is to be drawn up
and brought to the negotiating table.

Description of the Approach
By drawing on the co-determination dialogues, an orientation workshop (1) involving the works council
and management is intended to identify workplace use cases for AI. Subsequently, in
identification workshops (2) with the works council, areas of action based company-level co-determination regarding the use of AI in the identified contexts will be identified.. Finally there will be dialogue workshops (3) with the works council and in-house experts to develop a
draft of an application-specific–AI BV and /or–an RBV AI based on–the model BV AI. .
Goals & Results
The Eickhoff multiplier project is intended to test,
evaluate and refine the contents of the HUMAINE Toolbox –
the co-determination dialogues and the model collective agreement on AI drawn up by the GA RUB/IGM. Furthermore, the successful
implementation of a (revised) collective agreement
at Eickhoff would potentially open up further opportunities for replication
within the industrial SME sector.
