This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
The book addresses digital transformation in companies and examines the changes for workplace stakeholders. The focus is on how co-determination interacts with digital transformation. This also puts a transformation of co-determination itself on the agenda, during which the direct participation of employees expands significantly in the interest-political positioning of works councils. Moreover, participation becomes a strategic resource for co-determination.
