Today, CDW Canada released Unlocking AI’s Potential: How to Build Trust and Capability in the Canadian Workplace, a report revealing that AI adoption in Canadian workplaces has reached a tipping point. Half of employees now report using AI tools for work, up from 33% in 2024, yet most organizations still lack the formal policies and training needed to ensure safe and effective use.
AI is reshaping Canadian workplaces, with significant implications for productivity, employee confidence, and competitiveness. But without stronger training and governance, organizations and workers could face risks such as data security gaps and inconsistent access to AI’s benefits.
Key findings from the report include:
- Support drives confidence: Employees with access to AI training or policies feel more confident using AI (75% vs. 41%)
- Limited support systems: Just 39% of employees with work-approved AI say their organization has AI-use policies, and only 20% report access to formal training
- Persistent concerns: Employees remain worried about job loss (44%), overdependence on AI (60%), and data security (36%)
