Monitor work areas or procedures to ensure compliance with safety procedures.

Monitor work areas or procedures to ensure compliance with safety procedures. is a detailed work activity in O*NET — a concrete unit of work shared across 5 occupations and seen in 5 occupation-specific tasks. It rolls up into the broader work activity Monitor safety or security of work areas, facilities, or properties. in Monitoring Processes, Materials, or Surroundings .

Detailed work activities are the most granular shared layer in O*NET's work-activity hierarchy (Generalized → Intermediate → Detailed → occupation-specific task). The figures below describe how this activity shows up across the economy and what independent studies measure about AI and this kind of work — not a prediction that the work will be automated.

AI exposure

Of the 5 tasks under this activity that the OpenAI / Eloundou “GPTs are GPTs” study rated, 0 (0%) are flagged as directly exposed to language models (E1) or exposed via model-powered tools (E2).

Exposure estimates overlap with model capabilities — whether a model could speed the task up — not whether the work will be done by software. Observed AI use is augmentation and assistance today, not jobs replaced.

Member tasks

Occupation-specific tasks O*NET maps to this detailed work activity, most important first.

• Take appropriate safety precautions, such as monitoring dive lengths and depths and registering with authorities before diving expeditions begin. · Commercial Divers · importance 4.8 · no direct exposure
• Adhere to safety practices and procedures, such as checking equipment regularly and erecting barriers around work areas. · Electrical Power-Line Installers and Repairers · importance 4.8 · no direct exposure
• Examine medical equipment or facility's structural environment and check for proper use of equipment to protect patients and staff from electrical or mechanical hazards and to ensure compliance with safety regulations. · Medical Equipment Repairers · importance 4.2 · no direct exposure
• Manage intradepartmental infection control and equipment security. · Occupational Therapy Aides · importance 4.0 · no direct exposure
• Inspect and monitor work areas, examine tools and equipment, and provide employee safety training to prevent, detect, and correct unsafe conditions or violations of procedures and safety rules. · First-Line Supervisors of Mechanics, Installers, and Repairers · importance 3.9 · no direct exposure
