WSH compliance, standards

Ripples IOT provides WSH compliance using wireless sensors, gateways and dashboard solutions to monitor workforce, their safety, security. Embed smart sensors inside helmets to warn of impending dangers. Track high value construction equipment for usage, location and potential failures. Ready to deploy WSH monitoring kits are available.

Call us to know more. Engage our team of experts for a WSH feasibility study or pilot a project on WSH sensors, workplace safety and security.

Established in 2010, The Singapore WSH Conference is a premier platform for the region’s leading professionals, business leaders and government officials to exchange ideas, solutions and practices for the advancement of WSH practice in the Asia Pacific region. The fifth edition of this biennial Conference is expected to bring together more than 800 delegates from across the region and industries.

This year, with the theme “Transforming for the Future – Healthy Workforce, Safe Workplaces”, the Conference is poised to bring together key thought leaders to share ideas focusing on the transformation needed to meet the WSH challenges of the future.

WSH Conference 2018

Established on 1 April 2008, the Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Council comprises leaders appointed from major industry sectors (including construction, manufacturing, marine industries, petrochemicals, and logistics), government, unions, employers as well as professionals from the legal, insurance and academic fields.

The Council works closely with the Ministry of Manpower and other government agencies, the tripartite partners, the industry, and professional associations to develop strategies to raise WSH standards in Singapore. The Council’s main functions are to build industry capabilities to better manage WSH; promote safety and health at work; recognise companies with good WSH records; and set acceptable WSH practices.

IOT people tracking

May 14, 2018ripplesiotIOT asset tracking, IOT in construction, IOT use cases

Workforce safety, industrial zones & assets

Our Internet Of Things for shipyards – (IoT) enabled people tracking solution, comprising of miniature sensors, gateway, device management framework and dashboard software provide new insights on movement of physical objects within premises such as shipyards, factories, warehouses, hospitals etc.

Ready to deploy IoT sensor based tracking solutions
Integrate high autonomy, reusable sensor devices with physical objects
Smartphone alerts based on wait time or movement
Choice of on-premise and cloud solution
Range of asset tags to deploy on various objects
Long battery life to ensure low cost on maintenance
Full software suite for people tracking and equipment monitoring
Compliant with all international norms – Atex, RoHS, CE etc

Our solutions mainly apply where long term projects are involved; like shipyard, construction of commercial spaces, tunnels, public utility buildings etc. The measurement helps in improving workplace safety, reducing operational bottlenecks, improve accountability and visibility.

People Tracking Solution helps in:

Data analytics to understand potential choke points during peak hours
Knowledge about worker movement to improve utilisation of facilities
Control and audit movement, theft and misuse of high value equipment
Monitoring the movement of objects between floors & locations
Understanding the working environment of temperature controlled areas

Asset tracking in shipyards, factories & warehouses

Alerts on machinery, trucks, cranes, forklifts entering or leaving the work site
Ensuring the availability of critical spares and their location
Keeping track of important files on confidential contracts and purchases

Without proper tracking methodologies, one cannot measure the loss of productivity, violation of safety norms and prevent unwarranted situations. Like when a business operation is unable to locate machinery or a critical spare inventory quickly or location of key people such as engineers, supervisors etc. in large work sites.

Lack of clarity in understanding the workflow resulting in long queues and frustration leading to inferior workflow process and operational efficiency. This can lead to lower satisfaction, increased costs, safety risk in industries and loss of revenue.

The same could be told about visitors – suppliers, consultants and other people entering high security areas such as warehouses, shipyard, bank locker rooms etc. Can also be extended to physical objects such as laptops, circuit boards in an equipment, industrial transformers etc.

Call us to know more about IOT people tracking in large projects – shipyards, commercial building, public utility, metro rail, tunnels etc. You can opt for a feasibility study on workforce tracking

Workforce tracking solutions

Bessie TPL solutions is among the leading ship building and repair companies based out of UAE, with over 15 simultaneous vessels being docked. Managing over 500 people, spares inventory management, supply chain logistics, worker attendance, safety, industry compliance, inspection requirements, zoning inside bulk tankers, explosive cargo storage etc.

How IOT people tracking saves money

“..Ever since we installed RipplesIOT solutions, the people productivity have increased by 6.3%, which is a considerable saving among the 250+ workers we have in the repair yard”

“.. People safety is of prime concern while working in the hazardous zone. The solution is now able to tell us if anyone had a fall or an accident”

“… We were amazed by the ease of deployment of these innovative solutions from RipplesIOT. The cost of installation was the lowest”

“… Theft of material was a major problem we had all the while. Now the assets are tagged and our security system alerts such cases”

With the help of our IOT platform and smart tags, shipping, warehouse, manufacturing and healthcare industries can deliver value to their operations through new insights that would help improve the productivity, experience, safety and security.

How does the IOT people tracking solution work

Tags are configured at the time of entry to premises and deployed inside helmets
Payroll system is integrated with our IOT platform to capture necessary data
Gateway readers are fitted within zones to understand people movement
IOT solution captures the data on movement, time spent, proximity in a central database
Data is shared in realtime with inspectors, attendance system & security to know the movement
Shop floor supervisors understand workflow to optimize visibility to each industrial zone
Optional track and trace for high value equipment used by companies
Monitoring of temperature and humidity levels at different areas
Prevent theft of high value in-house equipment

Call us to know how IOT people tracking tracking can help management companies, logistics yards, healthcare institutions, shipyards, ship repair units, warehouses etc. Achieve higher security enforcement, tracking and return on investment by understanding people movement behaviour, storage positioning and securing valuable assets.
