Global: Nouveau rapport de l’OIT – L’IA et la numérisation transforment la sécurité et la santé au travail
À l’approche de la Journée mondiale de la sécurité et de la santé au travail, le 28 avril, un nouveau rapport de l’Organisation internationale du Travail (OIT) montre comment l’intelligence artificielle (IA), la numérisation, la robotique et l’automatisation transforment la sécurité et la santé au travail (SST).
En prenant en charge des tâches dangereuses, en assistant lors d’interventions chirurgicales et en optimisant la logistique, les robots contribuent à réduire les risques et à améliorer l’efficacité. Ces technologies favorisent la santé et le bien-être des travailleurs. Il reste toutefois nécessaire d’intensifier les efforts pour atténuer les risques potentiels qu’elles pourraient engendrer.
