Addressing Frontline Workforce Safety Challenges in Energy & Utilities
Over the past 20 years, the energy and utility sector has made great progress in reducing reportable occupational injuries, but serious injury rates haven’t improved at the same rate. These most injurious situations require more than a robust safety culture, they require new capabilities.
Frontline workers need situational awareness. Remote support teams need to understand where these workers are, the conditions they face and have the ability to communicate with them in real-time. These capabilities sit atop and generate new data that can and should be incorporated into larger
digital transformation efforts.
In this recorded session it will be discussed how connected safety solutions were deployed in outage management activities across North American facilities over the past year, the challenges in deployment and user acceptance and the impact on worker safety and operations.
