The health and social care sector has traditionally been a pioneer in terms of datafication and digitalization. Ongoing technological and societal change, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, is impacting not only workers in the sector, but also the affordability and quality of health and care provision. An article on the website of the EU-OSHA (European Agency for Safety and Health at Work) provides data on the risks and opportunities of working on digital platforms with regard to occupational safety and health. The findings are intended to help policy makers and platforms consider and manage the needs of workers and strengthen healthcare systems across the EU.
