How AI is changing your workplace

When we last surveyed finance workers about AI, only 8% felt they had a strong understanding of its potential applications in the workplace.

Since then, AI has spread rapidly – shaping how decisions are made, how work is done, and in some cases, even taking over our jobs.

We all know the benefits AI can bring when it’s used responsibly. But too often, decisions are made without consulting the people closest to the work: finance workers.

That’s why we need to hear from you about how AI is being used in your workplace today.This survey will take no more than five minutes to complete.

Without consultation, training and safeguards, the risks quickly outweigh the opportunities. Across the industry, we are already seeing job cuts linked to AI. This is no longer about the future – it’s happening now.

Your insights will help us identify where training, transparency, and job protections are most urgently needed – and give us the evidence to demand stronger safeguards for finance workers.

The more voices we gather, the louder we’ll be when calling for accountability and fair rules around AI.

If you want a stronger voice on issues like AI, job security and fair workplaces, the FSU is here for you. If you’re not already a member, now is the time to join and be part of the movement shaping the future of finance work.
