Health and Safety of Other Workers

Work context · O*NET

Health and Safety of Other Workers is a work-context dimension in the O*NET database — one of the standardized conditions O*NET uses to describe the environment a job is done in , grouped under Interpersonal Relationships. O*NET defines it by asking workers: "How much responsibility is there for the health and safety of others in this job?." It is rated for 894 occupations, which average 3.28 out of 5 (high relative to other context dimensions).

How it's measured

O*NET rates each occupation on this dimension on a 1–5 context-importance scale (the CX scale), where higher means the condition is a more frequent or more central part of the work. The figures on this page are those occupation-level ratings — a description of working conditions as workers report them, not a judgment about pay, difficulty, or whether a job is "good."

Economy-wide average 3.28 / 5 Mean across all 894 rated occupations
Range across occupations 1.20–4.96 Lowest to highest occupation rating (spread 3.76)
Intensity vs. other dimensions 68th pct Where this dimension's average ranks among all O*NET work-context dimensions

How AI is used by roles where health and safety of other workers is central

A working condition is not itself "being automated" — but we can look at the occupations where it is most central and ask how those people actually use AI. This rolls the Anthropic Economic Index per-role signal up across the roles that rate this condition 3 or higher (CX-rating-weighted). 50.4% of the 573 occupations where this condition is present carry observed AI-usage data (289 roles).

Across those roles, 42.6% of AI conversations are people working with AI and 30.5% hand a task to AI , with an average autonomy of 3.58 / 5.

Collaboration pattern Share What it means
directive 27.8% AI does it; you give the instruction
learning 21.6% you ask AI to explain or teach
task iteration 19.1% you and AI go back and forth
feedback loop 2.8% AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback
validation 1.9% you do it; AI checks your work

Roles behind this signal

The occupations where this condition is most central and that also have the most AEI data. "Works with AI" is the role's share of conversations that augment rather than automate.

Occupation Condition (1–5) Works with AI Autonomy
Biological Science Teachers, Postsecondary 3.7 63.2% 4.0/5
Recreation and Fitness Studies Teachers, Postsecondary 3.0 66.2% 3.3/5
Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary 3.4 66.2% 3.5/5
Forestry and Conservation Science Teachers, Postsecondary 3.8 65.3% 4.0/5
Chemistry Teachers, Postsecondary 4.1 66.0% 4.0/5
Atmospheric, Earth, Marine, and Space Sciences Teachers, Postsecondary 3.1 66.3% 4.0/5
Nursing Instructors and Teachers, Postsecondary 3.9 65.8% 3.8/5
Environmental Science Teachers, Postsecondary 3.3 66.3% 4.0/5
Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education 3.3 62.3% 4.0/5
Middle School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education 3.2 62.8% 4.0/5
Vocational Education Teachers, Postsecondary 3.2 64.4% 4.0/5

Source: Anthropic Economic Index (2026-01-15-v4-plus-2025-03-27-v2) over a sample of Claude.ai Free and Pro conversations — not all AI tools and not the whole workforce. This is a role-weighted projection from AEI-linked occupations where this condition is central, not a direct measurement of AI use for the condition itself. Shares are weighted by how central the condition is to each role; some conversations are left unclassified by Anthropic's taxonomy, so shares need not sum to 100.
