Javier Sánchez, occupational risk prevention consultant at Fraternidad-Muprespa, gave the presentation "Technological transformation in ORP. Risks, advantages and disadvantages"; María Luisa González, lawyer at Ramón y Cajal Abogados, who spoke about the rights and obligations in the application of new technologies, as well as automated decisions in the workplace; Rodrigo Sampedro, director of the High Performance Academy, who spoke about engineering and humanism at work; and Luis Salgado, head of health and safety in the Territorial Cantabria of the Construction Labor Foundation, who presented the study on the impact of AI and digitalization on the figure of the prevention technician.
Sánchez analyzed the advantages that technology brings to ORP, among others, greater efficiency, speed, personalization, traceability and predictive capacity. Likewise, it exposed its 'side', such as the loss of privacy, technological dependence, the digital divide or cybersecurity problems.
He also highlighted that the key is balance: designing technologies centered on people, evaluating their ethical and organizational impact, training staff, protecting data and measuring their effectiveness. “It is not just about digitizing, but about transforming with meaning, responsibility and human vision,” he concluded.
On the second day of the Congress, Mar Morales, director of the Department of Prevention and Health Culture, participated on behalf of digital: towards sustainable comprehensive health".
Morales explained that “we live in an increasingly digital world, where technology influences practically all daily aspects, and along with its undeniable advantages, new health risks are also generated that, not only are we not valuing but we are normalizing,” he said.
He also described the different consequences of excessive use of digital devices, how it affects our cognitive, emotional and social capacity, and the need to manage them properly to promote and enjoy true digital well-being.
The Congress also presented the first Labor Well-being Observatory, born from the collaboration between Fraternidad-Muprespa and the People and Companies Foundation, which seeks to maximize the benefits of technology while minimizing its risks, promoting conscious and responsible use of digital environments. Its main objective is to offer information to measure, prevent and provide guidelines for action in the face of problems derived from the excessive or inappropriate use of technology.
