A chatbot named James authored several paragraphs of this editorial using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and a Large Language Model or Logic Learning Machine (LLM). We checked for possible plagiarism, obtaining the following assessment: “It looks 100% original. We found no matching text in our databases or on the internet”. As technology and industry advance, we cannot ignore their ongoing impact on workers’ health and safety. It is, therefore, crucial to have a platform that addresses the complexity of work-related illnesses and injuries. “La Medicina del Lavoro” provides just that. The journal, established in 19091, has been instrumental in disseminating research, editorial reviews, and news of new technologies and laws that have improved the quality of health services for over a century. Today, its contributions are equally essential in promoting wellness and reducing workplace hazards. The range of topics covered by the journal is broad and includes occupational ergonomics, environmental health, occupational toxicology, and psychological health at work, to name a few. These topics demonstrate the scope of concern for occupational health matters. Many work-related illnesses and injuries are complex, requiring a multi-disciplinary approach. Work settings have specific factors affecting workers’ health; thus, evaluation and intervention should be tailored to the workplace. The journal encourages cross-disciplinary collaboration, which facilitates sharing of knowledge and expertise from various fields, such as occupational medicine and toxicology, epidemiology, and microbiology. As the official journal of the Italian Society of Occupational Health, it is committed to ensuring research integrity and the standards of leading publications providing valuable insights into the crucial intersection of work, environment, and health. It covers everything from occupational health to environmental sustainability, highlighting the importance of addressing these issues in the workplace. Addressed topics include environmental sustainability, occupational hazards, and workplace safety. These articles emphasize the importance of a holistic approach to workplace health and safety, which involves addressing physical and psychological factors. As employers strive to create healthier and safer work environments, it is crucial to consider the interplay between work, environment, and health. By adopting evidence-based policies that prioritize employee well-being, reduce occupational hazards, and promote environmental sustainability, workplaces can create a more productive, healthy, and resilient workforce.

The changes in the world of work and the recent worldwide events have exacerbated the existing psychosocial risks and brought out new psychosocial risks to be considered for protecting workers' health. This favors the opening up of national and international debate on prioritizing psychosocial risks at work at the policies, strategies, and actions level. This contribution highlights the critical issues to be addressed, the needs to be covered, and the opportunities for better and more effective OSH protection in the workplace. Starting from a definition of psychosocial risks and their potential impacts, we offer an overview of the most recent developments in policies and strategies and the contribution of research in this field over time. A critical reflection on emerging topics, main needs, and challenges for organizations and stakeholders is offered. This time of change poses great concerns but also offers a great opportunity of moving from a culture of assessment to a culture of psychosocial risk management for improving workers' well-being, productivity, and health, where the risk assessment is an important step but not a point of arrival.</p>","PeriodicalId":49833,"journal":{"name":"Medicina Del Lavoro","volume":"114 2","pages":"e2023013"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/a5/e1/MDL-114-13.PMC10133769.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9352812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
