Currently, workplace wearables and connected worker solutions, collectively referred to as workplace technologies, find niche applications across various industries including agriculture, construction, mining, production, healthcare, retail, warehousing, technology, transportation, and automotive.
Addressing Heavy Lifting, Ergonomics, and Lift Assists
The act of lifting heavy objects poses risks such as back sprains, muscle pulls, and injuries to the wrist, elbow, or spinal cord. Industries such as construction, manufacturing, warehousing, retail, and transportation commonly involve heavy lifting activities, with NIOSH identifying heavy lifting as the leading cause of occupational injuries among EMS workers.
Wearables for Occupational Productivity Monitoring:
