THE Government has called on employers to adopt emerging technologies, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), to improve safety standards and protect employees in the workplace.
This year’s belated World Day for Safety and Health at Work commemorations were held in Chinhoyi, with a strong emphasis on deploying innovative strategies to prevent occupational hazards and promote a culture of safety.
In a speech during the event, Deputy Minister of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare, Honourable Mercy Dinha, urged the National Social Security Authority (NSSA) and employers to begin investing in digital infrastructure that will enhance occupational safety and health (OSH) monitoring and enforcement.
