Abstract: Digital transformation has redefined the modern workplace by integrating technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, cloud computing, and automation into business operations. While these technologies have brought numerous benefits, including increased efficiency, flexibility, and productivity, they have also introduced unintended side effects that can negatively impact the working environment. This article explores the key challenges emerging from digital transformation, including job displacement, increased stress and burnout, digital surveillance, work-life balance issues, and a widening skills gap. The discussion is supported by recent studies, emphasizing the importance of strategic measures to address these challenges and create a more sustainable and inclusive workplace.
