Making Jobsites Safer With Wearables, Ansell

Beemal Vasani, head of commercial business strategy and business development at Ansell Inteliforz, discusses the importance of pinpointing potential injuries on a job site and then educating workers on the possibility of injury and the best ways to prevent injury. One scenario where using wearables is useful is repetitive tasks. In this sort of case, wearables could remind workers every 30 minutes or so to stop what they are doing and do some sort of hand or body stretch.

Wearables help measure and keep track of worker movement data. Whether it is needed to keep workers aware of their movements or to prevent injuries, the technology can help keep workers safe and healthy for longer.
