If you work in critical infrastructure or process industries and artificial intelligence (AI) plays a role in safety-related work, researchers want to hear about your experience.
On behalf of HSE, Emlyn Square is running a short survey to understand how engineering and safety professionals use AI tools to support decision-making and problem solving.
The anonymous survey takes around 10 minutes to complete and explores how AI is shaping safety-critical work.
The research forms part of the ThinkSHARP project, which is investigating how AI is transforming cognitive work in critical infrastructure and process industries.
The project is funded by the UK’s AI Safety Institute (AISI) through the AISI Challenge Fund.
Take part
Complete the survey: AI use in UK infrastructure and process industries.
After completing the survey, you can also register your interest in taking part in a follow-up research interview.
Please respond by 17 April 2026.
