Description
This session will report on the implementation of a heat stress physiological monitoring program Software as a Service.
It will address the following program decisions and their implementation:
- the evaluation of options for physiological monitoring undertaken by the companies
- the selection of a vendor
- the preliminary testing of the product as fit for purpose
- the delivery of staff training and experiences
- the selection of the metric for surveillance of heat strain risk and the threshold value selected
- feedback from the wearers, the overseers watching the work and the data, and from the persons in charge/workgroup supervisors.
It will also include trend data around the platform metrics, along with the summary of lessons learned from the 2025 deployment in pursuit of continuous improvement.
