HSR Conference 2025

 

As the implementation of AI and surveillance technology rapidly outpaces legislative efforts to control the rollout, how can Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) be better equipped to protect and advocate for their Designated Work Groups (DWGs)?

This year’s conference, REPS AGAINST THE MACHINE, explores the growing use of technology in the workplace under the guise of productivity, safety, and compliance—and what this means for workers’ health, safety, and rights.
