AlertMeter® Impairment Detection Technology

At Predictive Safety, we’re all about effective safety initiatives, after all, safety is in our name!

We’re often asked where the ‘bang for the buck’ is in terms of safety gains that companies across industries can undertake to improve site and workplace safety. 

Overworked and fatigued workers create safety hazards. In some industries, small mistakes caused by a lack of energy and awareness can many others at risk, however, the dangers and accidents caused by working through fatigue are palpable in any industry. 

Safety-sensitive workplaces often analyze safety performance metrics with leading and lagging safety indicators. The ability of managers and supervisors to identify these leading and lagging indicators and use them to influence workplace safety procedures is key in improving workplace safety and productivity.

A Supervisor's Plight

A foreman for a large construction and engineering company named Mitchell supervises a crew of about thirty workers. He can remember the names of only a few of his crew, just those who have stuck around long enough to develop a rapport with him. But the remaining members of his crew have lately been an ever-changing assortment of people, most of whom have little experience in this kind of work, if any. 

Making beneficial changes to a safety system or process often appears straightforward. But when implementing changes gets underway, organizations often encounter snags and obstacles that impede the change's success, and this process often exposes differing perceptions and misaligned commitments regarding safety among employees, supervisors, and managers.
