02/03/2023 - 02/04/2023 - COEH Builds Bridges: Algorithm Based Work, Wearables, and Surveillance

Algorithm Based Work,  Wearables, and Surveillance

Friday, February 3 - Saturday, February 4, 2023  |  Sacramento, CA


Join COEH for a conversation on the impact and future of data-driven technologies in the workplace. We will discuss how data is collected and used in the workplace; the intersection of humans, robots, and artificial intelligence; and ethical considerations, including how algorithms can reinforce discrimination and erode worker privacy. We will also explore the role of wearables in reducing musculoskeletal injuries, and how human-centered design of textile-based wearable products can improve health and wellbeing for people with special needs. Throughout the conference, we hope to foster an engaging discussion on technology rights and impact of technology on worker health and safety.
