Green workspace and urban health: exploring the impacts of industrial robotics in pollution emissions and public health.

ABSTRACT: This study addresses a critical gap in understanding how technological advancements, specifically industrial robots, influence urban pollution emissions and public health. The rapid evolution of technology and changing working conditions significantly affect these areas, yet research has not extensively explored this domain. Utilizing 2018 China Labor-force Dynamic Survey (CLDS) dataset, this study examines the impact of industrial robots on public health. An analytical framework is employed to assess the correlation between the adoption of eco-friendly industrial robots and improvements in worker health, attributed to the reduction of pollution emissions. The findings reveal that the adoption of industrial robots significantly enhance both public physical and mental health. This study als
