The IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems will take place 14 - 18 October 2024 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Our Chair will be represented with the contribution “Designing Workplace Robots: A Social Impact Assessment Tool for Automation and Augmentation in Construction” to the Late Breaking Results session by Sihui Wu, Kim Norgaard Helmersen, and Gudela Grote.
The thirteenth edition of the Swiss HR Barometer focusses on the topic of ‘Sense and nonsense at work’. The majority of the 2032 respondents in Switzerland feel that their work is important and meaningful, with this becoming increasingly im- portant from the age of 55. However, almost half feel alienated to some extent, and the perceived boredom has increased slightly compared to 10 years ago.
In today's fast-paced world of work, uncertainty is a constant companion. From technological advancements to changing market dynamics, it is something we all face daily. Rather than fearing uncertainty, what if we could harness its potential?
The chair received funding by the Mobility Initiative for the research project “Designing explainable ML-based systems for collaborative work in the railways” in collaboration with Siemens Mobility and the Swiss National Railways, and doctoral student Lena Schneider working on it. It started in Sepember 2022 and runs for 36 months. For this project we are hiriing a Postdoctoral Researcher. See add here:
