Networking Workers for Safety

When

9/29/16 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm CDT

Event Description

There is a growing emphasis today on real-time monitoring and collecting real-time safety data, particularly with regard to lone worker scenarios. Most of the situations involve tracking individual worker movements and activities by communicating data to a central command center. In the archived webinar displayed below, we discuss the methods and benefits of real-time networking of individual workers. Attendees will learn how to connect workers to one another and improve safety through peer-to-peer communications.
