Home > The news of EUROGIP and occupational risks in Europe > OSH, future of work and artificial intelligence

On the theme of occupational safety and health (OSH) and the future of work, a new “discussion paper” published by EU-OSHA addresses the benefits and risks of artificial intelligence (AI) at work.

Human resources, cobots in factories and warehouses, chatbots in call centres or portable self-monitoring devices…, he addresses these different points before seeing what are the developments from a political, regulatory and training point of view.
