Meeting
AI and digital tools are reshaping how occupational risks are identified, assessed, and managed—from predictive analytics that prevent accidents to robotics that eliminate human exposure to hazardous tasks. At the same time, these technologies raise critical concerns about worker surveillance, algorithmic bias, exclusion, and the blurring of work-life boundaries.
On the occasion of World Day for Safety and Health at Work 2025 this event brings together ILO constituents and international experts to explore how AI and digitalization are reshaping OSH systems across sectors and countries.
