Abstract
High-level Workshop Smart Monitoring Systems
Smart digital systems using artificial intelligence, machine learning, and sensing technologies are entering EU workplaces and they are redefining safety and Health (OSH). Which opportunities does this present for workers and managers? And what are the risks?
EU-OSHA, under its OSH Overview project, has been looking into this question. Together with Ecorys, the Agency has been working on an overview of research and practices in relation to smart digital systems for improving workers safety and health. Part of this work is already available on EU-OSHA’s website.
This workshop brings all of this work together. On its first day, the workshop classifies smart digital systems, assesses their challenges, risks, and opportunities for different sectors and provides insights into their future prospects. On the second day, it presents real-world examples of companies featured in the study that are both manufacturing and using smart digital systems. It examines what these companies see as the greatest challenges and opportunities.
