Heat-Stress Monitoring Watch

Heat stress monitoring watches offer a vital solution for ensuring worker safety by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of both vital signs and environmental conditions. These wearable devices track body temperature and other critical metrics, issuing instant vibration and sound alerts when heat stress levels become dangerous. By promptly notifying workers of hazardous conditions, these watches help prevent heat-related illnesses, ensuring that individuals can take immediate action to protect their health and maintain safe working environments.

Real-time Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature

Real-time Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) monitoring is a critical measure for managing heat stress among site personnel, as per the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) guidelines. Traditionally, safety personnel use portable WBGT devices to manually update temperature readings in a WhatsApp group when temperatures exceed 30°C-32°C, necessitating further action. However, real-time monitoring every 15 minutes with a data logger feature provides a more accurate and comprehensive temperature profile throughout the day. This automated approach allows for timely and precise interventions to protect workers from heat-related risks, ensuring a safer working environment.
