Abstract: Abstract In a comparative perspective, Norwegian working life is characterized by high levels of unionization, tripartite cooperation, strong trade unions and employer organizations, an extensive legal and institutional framework, a compressed wage structure, and a high degree of individual influence for employees. At the same time, several studies suggest that digitalization and artificial intelligence may pose a serious challenge to this model, and thereby also to workers’ ability to influence digital restructuring and change. This chapter reviews the core elements of the model—its historical background, the tools the institutional framework offers to union representatives seeking to engage with digitalization, and the model’s main strengths and weaknesses.
