Smart Workplaces: AI, Robotics and Impact on Occupational Safety - Galway

The Health and Safety Authority invites you to attend this seminar on the EU Healthy Workplaces Campaign which aims to raise awareness around the occupational safety and health (OSH) challenges, risks and opportunities related to the digital age.

Thursday 24th October, Galmont Hotel, Galway @ 09:30

Why attend?

Digital technologies provide essential services and solutions for all sectors of the economy and society. Digital technologies are not only changing how we work, but also where and when we work.

Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) support and replace personnel operating in hazardous environments. Big data enables more effective monitoring systems. Despite its benefits, the impact of digitalisation on occupational safety and health (OSH) is still emerging and relatively uncharted. If a human-centred approach is taken when designing, implementing, managing and using digital technologies, it can help to ensure worker safety and business productivity.

Attendees will hear from experts in the area of human factors and the psychosocial aspects of this new and emerging work environment. Attendees will also hear from industry representatives and speakers on the topics of AI and Robotics.

Who should attend?

• Employers and duty-holders
• Operations Managers
• Production Managers
• Worker representatives
• Safety representatives
• OSH researchers and consultants

Further details on the Agenda will be released in the coming weeks and will be available on our website www.hsa.ie and on HSA social media channels.
