Workforce Safety
Reduced emergency response times
Real-time location tracking allows you to quickly identify the location of workers in the event of an emergency, such as a fire or evacuation.
Increased safety in hazardous areas
Monitoring the location of personnel in hazardous areas (e.g. construction zones, hazardous environments) allows you to react immediately in the event of exposure or unauthorized access.
Monitoring employee health and safety
When working in stressful or isolated environments, location tracking allows you to monitor employee activity status (for example, prolonged inactivity that could indicate an injury).
Improved evacuation management
In evacuation situations, employee location tracking allows you to verify in real time that everyone has left risk areas, without having to manually count personnel.

To achieve greater safety for workers, RTLS (Real-Time Location Systems) can constantly monitor their location in real time, allowing for rapid intervention in case of emergencies. This technology allows for immediate location of employees in critical situations, automatic alarms if they enter dangerous areas, and environmental conditions to monitor to prevent risks. In addition, RTLS facilitate evacuation drills and improve resource management during emergencies, ensuring a safer and more responsive work environment.

HOW IT WORKS

 

Our Workforce Safety solution is based on RTLS platforms from our technology portfolio: BLE, AoA, Mesh. The choice of the best-fit technology is based on the analysis of the technical, functional, operational and environmental requirements of the project.

Energy-efficient battery-powered wearable tags are worn by workers. Tags include an accelerometer sensor that provides motion status of the person and, using advanced algorithms, can detect critical events like shock or man-down. Wearable tags also integrate an alarm button, which can be used to send localized alerts for assistance or critical events.

A fixed infrastructure of antennas (also called locators or anchors) allows to receive the signal from the tags. Depending on the technology and the solution adopted, antennas can be mains-powered or battery-powered, and support different data connection technologies: Ethernet, WiFi, Mesh.

Raw data coming from the antennas are processed by the localization software, which provides the position and status data of the individual tags worn by personnel, including alarm events, through APIs, for easy and seamless integration with application software or third-party systems. Location data can be also used to trigger system alarms in case of presence in unauthorized areas or reports by lone workers. The localization software also comes with an intuitive graphical UI for system management and monitoring.
