Artificial-Intelligence-Supported Reduction of Employees’ Workload to Increase the Company’s Performance in Today’s VUCA Environment

This paper aims to develop a multidimensional model of AI-supported employee workload reduction to increase company performance in today’s VUCA environment. Multidimensional constructs of the model include several aspects of artificial intelligence related to human resource management: AI-supported organizational culture, AI-supported leadership, AI-supported appropriate training and development of employees, employees’ perceived reduction of their workload by AI, employee engagement, and company’s performance. The main survey involved 317 medium sized and large Slovenian companies. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypotheses. The results show that three multidimensional constructs (AI- supported organizational culture, AI supported leadership, and AI-supported appropriate training and development of employees) have a statistically significant positive effect on employees’ perceived reduction of their workload by AI. In addition, employees’ perceived reduced workload by AI has a statistically significant positive effect on employee engagement. The results show that employee engagement has a statistically significant positive effect on company performance. The concept of engagement is based on the fact that the development and growth of the company cannot be achieved by increasing the number of employees or by adding capital ; the added value comes primarily from increased productivity, which is a result of the innovative ability of employees and their work engagement, which improve the company’s performance. The results will significantly contribute to creating new views in the field of artificial intelligence and adopting important decisions in creating working conditions for employees in today’s rapidly changing work environment.
