On the 6th of October 2025, from 10:00 to 13:00 CEST, EBC and its partners in the Horizon Europe project Beeyonders are organizing an online workshop on technologies improving health and safety conditions in building construction and road construction and maintenance projects.
Technological innovation is already shaping day-to-day operations on the ground: autonomous robots conducting heavy or repetitive tasks, aerial robots extending operational capabilities, exoskeletons and wearables sensors designed to support workers and reduce strain. This first session will explore how such technologies are changing the way projects are planned, delivered, and maintained, with a particular focus on safety, efficiency, and worker well-being inbuildings, road construction and road maintenance.
Building on tests performed on pilot sites across Europe (Spain, Finland and Italy), the session will share the lessons learned and explore how these solutions provide a tangible preview of how the sector could evolved towards safer and more efficient practices with a human-centric approach.
The event will also feature insights from the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) and an interactive exchange with participants. Participants will be invited to an interactive session, with space for questions, feedback, and a short survey gathering workers’ perspectives on gender inclusionand workplace well-being.
At a later date (21st of October), a second workshop will then focus on technologies for improved health and safety conditions in tunnels and maritime construction.
EBC is proud to support the EU-OSHA Healthy Workplaces Campaign and was awarded the Campaign Partner Certificate. EBC’s commitment focuses on raising awareness of OSH legislation, driving human-centered innovation through EU projects such as BEEYONDERS, and advocating for fair rules, adapted training, and adequate support for construction SMEs.
