“It’s not the tech, it’s how it’s used”

Digit’s Co-Director, Professor Jacqueline O’Reilly has been quoted in an article in the Guardian discussing the effect of technology-enabled home working on equality and inclusion.
Professor O’Reilly said:
“If the leadership feels that younger workers or people from different ethnic backgrounds, or women should be heard, then they will be. If the leadership are oblivious to these issues, they won’t… The tech itself is not what makes it inclusive, or exclusive and discriminating. It’s how people use it.”
