Description

Husam Zayid and colleagues examine how algorithmic management affects worker well-being. Their survey study from twenty twenty-four draws on manufacturing firms in Istanbul. Software now assigns tasks, monitors staff, and scores performance in many workplaces. Such systems promise fairness and efficiency, but workers may feel threatened.

Hundreds of employees answered the survey across many small firms. Statistical modelling tested paths between management style and well-being. Algorithmic practices raised both burnout and perceived threat. Both of those harms then lowered well-being. The direct link from practices to well-being was not significant alone. A good fit between person and job softened some harmful links. Managers learn that fit matters when software runs the workplace.
