AI job fears erode workplace safety, but servant leadership can help

A study of 365 South Korean employees found that fear of job displacement due to Artificial Intelligence-Induced Job Insecurity (AIJI) negatively impacts workplace safety behaviors. This insecurity leads employees to conserve cognitive resources by withholding questions and concealing errors, a phenomenon exacerbated by a loss of psychological safety. However, the research also indicated that servant leadership can act as a buffer, mitigating the negative effects of AIJI on psychological safety and preventing a cascade of resource depletion that harms safety practices.

IMPACT AI-driven job displacement can lead to reduced workplace safety by causing employees to hide errors and questions, but strong leadership can mitigate this.
