product
A B2B safety platform that enables decision-making driven by health data, keeping non-desk workers safe on their work-related missions.
why it matters
Managing heavy jobs and operating in stressful and harsh environments, non-desk workers are most affected by workplace accidents. By including health-data in occupational safety, we allow for early detection of the biggest underlying causes of avoidable accidents:
heat exhaustion
01
Non-desk workers suffer from getting too hot - due to outside temperatures, physiological strain, or their protective clothing.
fatigue
02
Non-standard schedules such as shift work is needed - but makes it more difficult to perform mental and physical activities.
offline workforce
03
Still lacking technology solutions that make their lives easier, non-desk workers often experience a disconnect from their team.
how it works
Our solution combines health data critical to keep non-desk workers safe with a software platform tailored to the needs of occupational safety.
epyGuard™
With human-centric sensors still missing in occupational safety, we are proud to have developed a wearable that collects exactly those vital signs relevant to keep a worker safe – including sweat, the 1st reaction our body has towards stress.
epyShield™ comes in two application options: either as a torso belt, or as an upper-arm strap.
epyShield™
Our safety platform consolidates all safety-relevant data in one place and visualizes information in accordance with industry-specific health & safety norms.
Our live dashboard allows health & safety supervisors to access and react to live team data.
Our historic dashboard allows safety-relevant roles to access and analyze aggregated and pseudonymized data to improve workflows and decision-making.
advantages
personalized safety
01
While occupational safety in the past has largely been process- and incident-based, we focus on the human side of safety.
real-time safety
02
We are able to detect early signs of physical exhaustion and keep non-desk workers safe in real-time.
workflow intelligence
03
Our historic dashboard allows workflow optimization on the basis of aggregated data to increase safety and reduce costs.
faq
-
A single battery charge lasts for up to 48 hours before it has to be recharged.
-
Up to 50 hours of data can be stored on the epyShield™ wearable itself.
The data is transmitted via low power bluetooth (BLE) to a phone or tablet that act as a gateway device and for a live view of the data.
-
epyShield™ is capable of acquiring all relevant vital signs for early detection of exhaustion, including sweat - the 1st reaction our body has towards stress.
Our proprietary ThermoTwin® model takes into account individual physiological differences and detects when a person starts to derail physically.
-
Health data is the most sensitive data there is and we honor that with an inherently safe epyGuard™ platform:
Only the person who generates the health data sees his/her data in detail. By invitation only, an occupational physician can access his/her data for health check-ups, too.
Supervisors and safety experts only see aggregated data (live in form of a traffic-light model status indicator, historically only team-level data).
Further, our clients are free to use non-personal identifiers for usernames instead of the workers' actual names.
-
Absolutely. However, we currently focus solely on working with best-in-class sensors who have been especially developed to safeguard workers and their environment.
