This year's World Day for Safety and Health at Work, on 28 April, focuses on "Revolutionising health and safety: the role of AI and digitalisation at work".
This theme will examine various new technologies through an occupational safety and health lens, including:
- Advanced robots
- Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning
- Exoskeletons
- Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- Virtual and Augmented Reality
The campaign will also shed light on new work practices, such as automation of tasks, big data analysis, smart digital systems and workers management through AI.
New technologies have also given rise to new types of work, such as digital platform work and remote work/hybrid work/telework, which will be further examined.
