Today, Rep. Glenn Grothman delivered remarks at a Workforce Protections Subcommittee hearing on how artificial intelligence and advanced technologies can improve workplace safety, while underscoring the need for human oversight, worker privacy protections, and policies that encourage innovation without sacrificing accountability.
Key Highlights:
- “Ultimately, AI and advanced technologies offer the opportunity to make workplaces safer than ever before. By balancing protection with progress, technology can improve productivity and actively protect people across industries.”
- “These tools can be invaluable for augmenting worker safety, but there must be space for human oversight, and employers should be wary of delegating ultimate responsibility for worker safety to AI.”
