Whether its fatigue, mental health, or legal marijuana, companies are looking for solutions that promote alertness and help each worker to be cognitively fit for work every day. With over 100 million hours in validation and efficacy trials organizations have shown significant reduction in their overall risks and costs associated with incidents.
These solutions include:
-
Seamless integration of a biomathematical fatigue prediction model to UKG that provides daily fatigue insights, prediction and mitigation strategies at the worker, department, manager and site level. PRISM from Predictive Safety
-
Seamless integration to UKG that provides of a revolutionary fatigue and impairment detection system. AlertMeter from Predictive Safety
-
The opportunity to execute a comprehensive biomathematical fatigue analysis across your entire workforce at the worker, department and site level without expensive consultants and extensive data export and migration hassles through the integrated PRISM Historical Fatigue Analysis Tool.
PRISM and AlertMeter offer unique features and capabilities:
-
Realtime dynamic fatigue monitoring and prediction (PRISM) that does not require worker engagement. The system provides dashboards and reports enabling managers to make decisions based on fatigue status of individuals on their teams. It also provides insights and data to management to pinpoint areas of risk within the organization. This system is best implemented in 24/7 operations with safety sensitive jobs where fatigue is a significant risk to the individual and the organization. The system utilizes extensive circadian algorithms for fatigue risk analysis and considers the following:
-
21-day look back at hours worked.
-
Encompass shift pressure (i.e. how many consecutive shifts worked).
-
Compensates for when a worker is moving from day to night shift with insufficient recovery time.
-
Comprehends call out shifts.
-
Comprehends commute time.
-
Impairment detection system (AlertMeter) that is executed upon punch in. The assessment takes ~45 seconds and provides instantaneous feedback to supervisors and managers with real time communication on fatigue and potential impairment status. AlertMeter recognizes that managers are busy and don’t have time in their day every day to check each crew member for fitness for duty. AlertMeter can identify if there is a potential impairment and notify a manger or manager group suggesting an engagement to determine if the worker is fit for duty that day. This system can be implemented in almost any environment where safety, productivity and financial risk from human factors is a concern. AlertMeter is sensitive to the following common impairments
-
Fatigue
-
Hangovers
-
Medication side effects
-
Emotional distress
-
Drugs and alcohol
-
Inadequate nutrition or sleep
PRISM and AlertMeter Provide Significant Benefit to the Organization
-
PRISM and AlertMeter system provide complete and wholistic solutions to managing risk from human factors, without the purchase of expensive gadgets, wearables, or other hardware. They are fully integrated into the UKG environment, making implementation simple with low administrative drag and simple deployment to either just the management or the entire workforce.
-
Companies that implement these technologies come from across multiple industries, but they all have one thing in common. A desire to protect their workers, reduce risk to the organization and improve productivity. Companies that implement these technologies see significant improvements in KPI’s:
-
Workers Comp – 45%
-
General Liability – 25%
-
Auto Liability – 40%
-
Lost Time Injuries – 50%
-
Drug Testing Failure Rates – 40%
-
OSHA TRIR - 30%
-
Productivity +11 %
-
Employee Turnover - 30 %
Additional Key Features include:
-
Impairment test that is non-discriminatory, language independent, device agnostic (tablets, mobile, iOS, Android, browser, and app available for all platforms).
-
Execution on average 45 seconds with a maximum of 60 seconds.
-
Key algorithms are based on statistical deviation from a person’s performance baseline rather than standard measurement across populations.
-
Clinically proven to be as sensitive to fatigue as the most sophisticated PVT tests currently on the market.
-
Scientific basis funded, validated by global leading organizations and standards.
The PRISM and AlertMeter integrations do the following:
-
Sync worker demographics between the PRISM, AlertMeter and UKG systems to eliminate administrative drag regarding adding, removing or managing users in the PRISM and AlertMeter systems.
-
Provide the PRISM and AlertMeter systems with punch data at the individual, group and site level which in turns enables and streamlines the following functions:
-
Creation of fatigue profiles, dashboards and reports by individual, group and site
-
Automation of notification and workflow management to be in sync with punch in times. This includes:
-
Failure to execute AlertMeter notifications to managers or safety staff
-
Dashboards to show fatigue or AlertMeter status for crews currently on site
-
Reports to managers related to crews currently clocked in
-
UKG solutions are developed with the UKG Life-work Technology™ approach to solution design. Life-work Technology has two components: people systems that inspire the workforce by enabling autonomy and flexibility, and by connecting people to their colleagues and roles with purpose; and work systems to help businesses thrive by offering higher productivity, optimizing teamwork, and providing more opportunity for people to support each other and their communities.
