Executive Summary
Over the past decade, the practice of workplace safety has been made increasingly effective and efficient by advances in technology. Enterprise SaaS applications, predictive analytics, mobile computing, and internet-connected environmental sensors have all created new avenues for EH&S leaders to enhance their firm’s safety performance, measured by metrics such as injury rates, cost-effectiveness, or increased production. Digital beacons, a technology that first found traction in the retail and commercial markets, are a relatively new addition to the list of tools EH&S leaders have at their disposal (see Verdantix Innovative EH&S Technologies For Your 2017 Roadmap). This report helps anyone in an EH&S role – on both the supply side and corporate side – understand how beacons function, how they can be used in a safety context, and how their role in the market will evolve in the future.
