Digital technologies are widespread in the economy, social spheres, and throughout industry. The transition to digital services in all industries is inevitable, including those with harmful and dangerous factors that can potentially affect a worker’s health adversely. The development of digital technologies makes it possible to digitize data that can assess industrial production, as well as monitor the impact of individual factors on the human body, an activity in which employers are already engaged in today. In line with this, the latest digital devices appearing on the market every year are capable of assessing the slightest changes in workers’ health, as well as understanding the impact certain factors have on employees’ working environment. These devices are mostly used by medical professionals to monitor the health of workers and quickly identify factors that may prevent workers from engaging in certain types of activities. At the same time, more and more people in the world are themselves monitoring their own health by carrying devices and gadgets on their person, which provide personal information about each person to big data databases for instant processing by artificial intelligence, and then receive back recommendations on how to maintain their health. Therefore, the conditions have already been created for the establishment of a unified digital ecosystem with the wilful participation of employees, employers, and medical organizations. What digital technologies are already helping to preserve the health of workers today? In the immediate future, which areas have the most promise, and which ones are moving at the quickest pace developing digital technologies? How soon can we expect the completion of the transition to digital services in all domestic production?
