I know I shouldn't put them on Automate, but towards the end-game I have no choice but to, otherwise it isn't fun managing everything. They simply won't stop making forts over important resources, I don't understand why. Is there a way to make them not do it?

That's the standard BtS behaviour of automated workers whenever they come across a resource that isn't within a city radius. There's nothing you can do to stop them other than not to automate.

The resources are in the cultural borders, if that's what you mean.

They're inside the borders, but outside the city radius, i.e. the "fat cross" of tiles the city can work. Starting with BtS, a fort built on a resource delivers the resource just like the appropriate improvement does. For instance, a fort on iron gives you iron, just like a mine would.
For a tile outside the radius of any city, building a mine/pasture/farm/plantation delivers no benefit other than giving access to the resource, but building a fort delivers several benefits other than access, like the ability to station planes and enter with ships if coastal, plus the defense bonus if you have a unit guarding the resource. Inside the city radius, obviously, it's almost always more beneficial to build the non-fort improvement since you also get the tile benefits by working it, but outside the only potential benefit over the fort is fewer worker turns spent building it.

Make groups of 2-3 workers and work them manually. Solves the problems of automation, and shortens the time spent moving them dramatically.

Build pastures/plantations and so on over all recourses in your empire (manually) and give workers "don't destroy exiting improvements" command (from options).

Solomwi, thank you so much for the info, now I'm happy they build the forts. Man and I thought the game was bugged, but really it was just my lack of knowledge of what forts actually do. Ok thanks.
