Worker Safety
An Introduction
HCL’s IoT WoRKSTM, in collaboration with IBM and PRESISTEM S.L. (Angel Helmet), has developed the Worker Safety solution, a novel cloud-based solution that enables safety of occupational workers in mining, construction, oil and gas, utilities, transportation, logistics, ports, manufacturing and other industries. Engineered to reduce workplace hazards, it’s a big step towards making risk-oriented occupations safer for everyone concerned.
The solution can also be readily integrated with IBM Watson IoT platform and IBM Watson IoT for Safer Workplace for additional health, safety, and productivity use-cases.
The Solution
- Multi-Sensor Wearable Device
- SoS Feature to Seek Assistance
- Real Time Location Tracking
- Two Way Communication between worker and safety administrator
- Supports Scale and Security
- Management and Maintenance of Devices, Applications and Cloud Instances
- Eliminates Multiple devices and sensors
- Geo Fencing Features
The Benefits
Reduced accident rate and improved response time
- Proactive alerts to accelerate emergency response to critical situations such as SOS, impact, man-down, gas leak, etc.
- Accelerated and visible process to evacuate hazardous/ impacted areas, monitor process, and guide teams appropriately
- Prohibit workers from entering the hazardous areas
Increased productivity
- Improved locational visibility and communication
- Automated access/ non-access controls for employees and contract workers
- In case of mining, existing manual processes in reconciliation before and after blast can be reduced by 80% through digital dashboards and safety wearables
Cost reduction
- Saving millions of dollars of medical expenditure, insurance premiums and OSHA fines
- Improve employee morale and operational confidence
