How can artificial intelligence support the safety inspection of machines? What does the increasing digitalization of human-machine interaction mean for occupational safety? How robust is Industry 4.0 against cyberattacks? These and other questions were addressed by international experts in a digital lecture series developed by the IFA in cooperation with the Section Machine and System Safety of the International Social Security Association (ISSA).

In early summer 2024, there was an exciting hour every Monday afternoon with an English-language lecture and discussions. The documents of some of the lectures are now available for download.
