Abstract

The high rate of artificial intelligence and automation is also considerably altering work-related safety systems and workers compensation systems in most industries. The AI technologies, like predictive analytics, real-time monitoring, wearable devices, and robotics, are increasingly applied in detecting risks at the workplace, preventing injuries, and enhancing the occupation safety management. Nevertheless, as much as the technologies help in minimizing injuries in workplaces, they present new legal and compensation dilemmas, such as how AI-related injuries are to be liable, how to safeguard worker privacy in AI surveillance technologies, how to ensure that AI algorithms are free of bias and how to control the use of AI generated evidence in compensation claims. The paper will discuss effects of artificial intelligence and automation in workplace injuries and shall give a view whether the current workers compensation laws are sufficient to deal with the legal and compensation challenges in AI driven workplaces. The paper also discusses how the workplace should have reforms in compensation legislation, insurance designs, and the liability forms that are responsive to the technological changes in the work place. To sum up, the paper will find that the future of workplace injury compensation needs a holistic, transparent, and equitable techno-legal compensation system to provide worker protection and encourage technological innovation.
