Companies in industries such as construction and industrial manufacturing often face the challenge of enhancing efficiency and safety in dynamic work environments. Regular changes in tasks, varying crew compositions, and high-paced work schedules can make it difficult to consistently manage and reduce workplace risks.
To address these challenges, businesses are increasingly turning to Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled technologies and wearable devices like the Spot-r suite of solutions. These technologies gather key performance indicators (KPIs) related to worker risk and behavior, transforming raw data into actionable insights. Here are four key areas where Spot-r is making a difference:
Managing Fatigue Risk:
Long work hours can lead to fatigue, increasing the likelihood of occupational injuries and accidents. Spot-r’s analytics enable supervisors to identify which crews are working extended hours, facilitating decisions on whether additional workers are needed or if adjustments should be made to reduce fatigue-related risks.
Addressing Tenure Risk:
New or less experienced workers are often at a higher risk of injury. Spot-r’s data analytics allow supervisors to monitor the movement and interactions of new workers, ensuring they are working in safe and authorized areas, thus reducing the risk of injury due to unfamiliarity with the site.
Behavior Risk Analysis:
Workers may sometimes adopt unsafe practices to meet tight deadlines. Spot-r’s KPI reporting helps supervisors identify such behaviors, enabling them to have discussions with workers about safe working practices and reduce the likelihood of workers’ compensation claims.
Managing Transient Workforce Challenges:
Subcontractors often rotate crews, leading to a transient workforce that may not be familiar with site protocols. Spot-r helps site supervisors track the composition of subcontractor crews, ensuring that workers have the necessary certifications and are familiar with site-specific safety protocols.
Spot-r’s technology offers comprehensive insights into various aspects of workplace safety and efficiency. By providing detailed analytics, it empowers companies to proactively address potential risks and implement strategies for safer and more efficient work environments. Triax continues to develop solutions to provide critical worksite insights, aiming to assist clients in building safer and more efficient workspaces.
