Tomorrow's Buildings: What Are the Occupational Health and Safety Issues?

preprint OA: closed CC-BY-4.0

Abstract

Climate change, the need to save raw materials and energy, the development of information and communication technologies that will enable the automation of construction sites, but also change the administrative management of these sites, etc. All these changes are opportunities to improve working conditions in a sector which, even if significant progress has been made in recent decades, is still too often lagging behind when it comes to occupational risk prevention. As part of an overall forward-looking analysis of changes in the building industry in France over the next 30 years, specific work has been devoted to the question of working conditions and the possibilities for improving them (or avoiding their deterioration). As techniques and professions are bound to evolve, what are the main levers we can use to ensure safer, more fulfilling working conditions?
