Flip the Script: Powering Worker Participation in the Design and Implementation of Technology
Our second SEISMEC Online Workshop: “Flip the Script: Powering Worker Participation in the Design and Implementation of Technology” delved into the SEISMEC approach to strengthening worker involvement in the adoption of technological solutions in the workplace.

D2.2 - AGILE guidebook for iterative and collaborative participation
This deliverable offers insights, recommendations, and useful context for involving workers in the design and implementation of (digital) technologies. The actionable recommendations in this deliverable will help foster iterative participation, emphasising co-creation, continuous feedback loops, and integration of worker input into organisational processes. The deliverable also addresses key challenges organisations may face when involving workers in technology design and implementation. These conclusions and recommendations are drawn from literature, interviews with Industry 5.0 experts, and consultations with 16 pilot companies participating in SEISMEC. These methods will be evaluated and validated across all SEISMEC pilots under WP3 (Pilots in real working environments). Overall, this deliverable helps organisations incorporate sustainable, human-centric solutions, and promote technology adoption while improving both job satisfaction and productivity.
D2.1 - Design guidelines, instruments and assessment criteria
This deliverable presents 41 “solution directions” – tools, methods and technologies – grouped into six categories, each with design guidelines and assessment instruments to support implementation. Based on literature reviews, expert input, workshops and feedback from pilot organisations, it offers a practical roadmap and research protocol to evaluate how new technologies affect work practices, well-being, safety and productivity in an Industry 5.0 context.

D1.1 - Benchmark of concepts and dimensions of human-centrism
Human-centrism is a critical concept that is more and more important across all European industries and various domains, including technology, design, and policy. This benchmark study explores the dimensions and underlying concepts of human-centrism. By analyzing existing literature and case studies, we identify key elements such as user needs, ethical considerations, and inclusivity. Our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how to create more human-centric industries and services.
D6.1 - Dissemination, Communication & Engagement Plan
This document outlines SEISMEC’s overall dissemination, communication and engagement strategies, providing specific action plans to reach a critical mass. It also contains the compilation of all early stage promotional actions, brand elements designed and released to execute the outreach plans, including: the project’s identity system and brand templates, online channels, events and future publications.
D3.1 - Pilot implementation and monitoring plan
The Pilot Implementation and Monitoring Plan report provides a comprehensive and detailed outline for all pilot activities. This document will reflect project developments, ensuring systematic and efficient implementation. The report includes the detailed plans for monitoring pilot progress, research methodologies, key performance indicators (KPIs), protocols and framework to achieve the projects’ objectives. Additionally, it encompasses ethics and privacy in data management to ensure safety and security throughout the project. The report aims to facilitate timely and accurate progress reporting, ensuring the pilot activities are conducted effectively, and contributing to the project’s success. Ultimately, the Pilot Implementation and Monitoring Plan serves as a crucial framework, guiding the execution of SEISMEC’s pilot activities to achieve the project’s goals.
