Description
This session is organised jointly by the European Commission (DG EMPL) and the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA).
The high-level participants in this session will share their insights on how policy actions can ensure that the digital transition brings benefits to workers around the world while minimising the potential risks. They will consider the automation of tasks and robotics, the use of digital platforms, artificial intelligence in worker management, remote working, and the use of smart digital tools in risk prevention.
There will be a panel discussion involving experts from social partners and stakeholders with global experience that will consider the impact of the digitalisation of work on occupational safety and health. Advancing faster than any innovation in our history, digital technologies have transformed our society and our daily lives. For workers and employers in all economic sectors, digital technology offers increased opportunities but also presents greater challenges and risks in terms of safety and health
