According to Survey; AI Impact on Workplace Safety Remains Limited

AI Impact on Workplace Safety Remains Limited

According to a recent Gallup poll, just 6% of American workers said AI technologies had improved workplace safety. This suggests that AI hasn’t had much of an impact on safety.

Employee safety was one of the least popular topics among the Fortune 500 chief human resource officers surveyed for the study. It was ranked lower than organizational ethics and integrity and other categories, tied with job security. In contrast, respondents do believe AI has made significant strides in other areas, with 45 percent reporting enhancements in Productivity and Efficiency.

Furthermore, according to 26% of workers, AI has increased creativity and innovation, and 23% said that AI has enhanced the quality of output or products at their organizations. The survey’s overall results show that although artificial intelligence (AI) is still having an impact on a number of business operations, its use in occupational health and safety has not yet reached its full potential.

While many firms are utilizing AI to increase productivity and make better decisions, not as many have taken use of the technology’s promise to enhance safety procedures like real-time risk detection or hazard prevention. Likewise, the poll reveals that one-third of employees feel their firms are applying AI, while two-thirds of employees claim they never utilize it at all in their roles.
