Occupational Robotics Research Prioritization

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has recently established the Center for Occupational Robotics Research. NIOSH is requesting information to guide the prioritization of research to be undertaken by the Center. NIOSH is seeking input on priority gaps in knowledge on the safety and health of humans working with robotics technology, with an emphasis on worker safety and health research which is unlikely to be completed by other federal agencies, academia, and the private sector.
