Every year, the ILO commemorates the World Day for Safety and Health at Work on the 28 April, focusing on a timely and important topic in the field of occupational safety and health (OSH). 

For 2025, the focus is on the transformative impact of artificial intelligence and digital technologies in the world of work. The theme, "Revolutionizing Health and Safety: The Role of AI and Digitalization at Work," underscores both the unprecedented opportunities and the emerging challenges associated with the integration of these technologies in workplace environments.

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.

This campaign calls for a human-centred digital transition, one that ensures technology enhances—not replaces—the health, safety, and dignity of all workers.
