The occupational safety and health panel is a survey that is targeted at the occupational safety and health personnel and focuses on topics of current interest related to work life. In 2024, the theme was occupational safety and health and artificial intelligence.

Description

The results are based on the occupational safety and health panel, an electronic survey about occupational safety and health activities and topical matters related to current workplace activities and well-being sent once a year to a set of people in the occupational safety and health personnel register. The theme of the 2024 Occupational Safety and Health Panel was generative artificial intelligence and its use in workplaces.

The purpose of the occupational safety and health panel is to support the occupational safety and health personnel’s work: the results give tips on the matters to which attention should be paid at workplaces. The survey also provides information about the status of current topics related to work life at Finnish workplaces.

The panel is carried out in co-operation by the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health and the Centre for Occupational Safety.

What the graphs describe

The graphs present the occupational safety officers' and occupational safety representatives' own assessment of generative artificial intelligence and its use.

The data consists of a survey carried out in November–December 2024, with a total of 255 respondents. Of the respondents, 76% were occupational safety officers and 24% were occupational safety representatives.
