Report: India firms avoid AI over employee training, health costs
A new report says workplaces in India (and worldwide) are facing some big challenges right now.
The biggest issues? Many companies are holding back on using AI because employees aren't trained enough, and rising health costs are making things tougher.
Out of the Indian participants surveyed, nearly half said they're hesitant to invest in AI because of these reasons.
Report urges upskilling and wellbeing resources
Over half of Indian HR and risk professionals are concerned about a lack of awareness regarding digital risks and mitigations.
Add in talent shortages, weak leadership (with less than half having solid assessment systems), and 54% of HR and risk professionals in India say support for employee mental health and emotional well-being is limited, and you've got a recipe for low morale and high turnover.
The report suggests that investing in upskilling, better tech awareness, and real mental health resources is the way forward to build stronger teams ready for the future.
