Abstract
A few factors are important for determining the effects of automation on the work environment, including the technological design and applications, approaches used for their presentation, and the automation goals of the organization’s management team. The application of robotics and automation to industrial processes provide optimization benefits relative to the work processes, however, the potential also exist for new situations to develop that may introduce system risks and human psychological risks to the employees. The main goal is to plan, design and implement robotic and automation programs that will be beneficial to the workforce, improving productivity, safety and quality.
