When AI expands the job before it replaces it
AI lets workers perform tasks historically associated with other professions. This apparent autonomy may also shift workload, responsibility and verification work.
RESEARCH

What happens when the manager is an AI?
When a system assigns tasks, measures activity or recommends a decision, it changes authority without necessarily making responsibility clearer.
Occupational health is an AI safety issue
A model can be technically reliable and still make work more intense, less autonomous or more uncertain. Safety must include the effects of the deployed system on people.
Compliance does not make AI deployment safe
Legal classification creates obligations. It does not replace analysis of real work, discussion of use or monitoring after deployment.

AI changes work before it changes employment
Transformation begins with meaning, recognition, autonomy and the value of expertise — long before a job disappears.

The hidden work created by AI
Checking, reframing, integrating, reporting and recovering from error: automation removes some operations while creating others that often go uncounted.

POLICY NOTEGovernance & PreventionAI Safety
Who is responsible for safe AI deployment at work?
Providers, management, business teams, IT, worker representatives and prevention specialists each see part of the system. Safety depends on explicit coordination.

RESEARCHAI & WorkAlgorithmic Management
AI can improve productivity. Managers may not know where.
Only 7.8% of managers in the study correctly anticipate differing effects across tasks. Heterogeneous performance can then become a homogeneous expectation.

France is beginning to treat AI as an occupational-health issue
France’s 2026–2030 occupational-health plan places AI-related transformations within prevention and calls for a national observatory on AI at work.
