Guardhat Analytics: Real-Time and Batch Analytics

Guardhat provides regular reports to customers on performance against safety standards. Here are some examples of compliance reports across each major area we measure:

• Environmental Safety
  • Response time to gas, temperature, radiation, particulate warnings
  • Time of response presented as a distribution, marking min (fastest response), max (slowest response), and median
  • Distribution of staff still in the warning zone by minute after a call to evacuate has been issued (absolute value and percentages)
  • Monitor data point to ensure environmental compliance e.g. to maintain permits
• Fire warning
  • Same statistics as above, but given the importance of fire responsiveness, it should be a separate metric.
• Heat map of gas levels, temperature and other environmental measures/levels across facility, over time.
• Locational Safety
  • Number of violations and compliant entrance of Lock Out / Tag Out zones.
  • Absolute number of violations and compliant entrances.
  • Ratio of violations to compliant entrances (to serve as a score).
  • Violator histogram to see if specific people are driving violation activity.
  • Heat map of violation activity to identify if particular zones are more problematic than others
• Geofencing violations
  • Same statistics as above, but reported separately as Lock Out / Tag Out is a specific issue that needs to be called out specifically.
• MIA
  • Number of MIA events in a time period.
  • Percent of time MIA over total time Guardhat environment is active (e.g. sum of all MIA events is 20 hours over a 100 hour period, or 20% MIA).
  • Heat map of MIA events (to help identify potential wireless dead zones or unauthorized exit points for staff).
  • MIA histogram by user to see if specific people are driving MIA activity
• Moving equipment
  • Proximity to hazardous equipment indicating high risk areas in the plant.
• Wearer Safety
  • Contract tracing report allowing identification of persons who have been in contact with a person of interest to prevent / detect virus spread.
  • Reports of warnings across all biometric data we are collecting (e.g. temperature, heart rate).
  • Number of warning events in a time period, with drill down by type (e.g. heart rate vs temp).
  • Heat map of biometric warning events, with drill down by type (to help identify potential problem areas where bodies are under greater stress).
  • Biometric warning histogram by user with drill down by type to see if specific people may benefit from wellness intervention, are overworked, etc. (i.e. some health-based intervention or decision may be beneficial)
• Guardhat Not Worn violations
  • Number of Not Worn events in a time period.
  • Percent of time Not Worn over total time Guardhat environment is active.
  • Heat map of Not Worn events.
  • Not worn histogram by user to see if specific people are driving MIA activity.
• Violation of any other wearer-specific item we are tracking (e.g. chin strap, presence of RFID tagged additional safety equipment)
• Follow “Guardhat Not Worn” metrics above
• SOS activity
  • Number of emergency situations identified by user.
• Individual workers reports highlighting safety history/compliance violations/issues over time which could be integrated into employee appraisals (for the specific worker, or across direct reports of a supervisor/manager).
• Prescriptive guidance on the need to mitigate worker risks such heat exhaustion, cold exposure, etc. given regulatory standards (e.g. rest time per time exposed to heat over a threshold).

Additional value to customers is derived from the Guardhat system’s ability to track user movements, activity, idle time, etc.

• Heat map of user movement with the ability to drill down to specific wearers, roles, shifts over a defined time period.
• Animated map of user movement with the ability to drill down to specific wearers, roles, shifts over a defined time period.
• Heat map of idle time with the ability to drill down to specific wearers, roles, shifts over a defined time period.
• Heat map of user concentration with the ability to drill down to specific wearers, roles, shifts over a defined time period.
• Re-presentation of geofencing data to identify potentially inefficient movement patterns within the job site.
• When, where and how helpline calls were initiated; provide targeted training for frequently occurring situations

Guardhat provide customers with regular benchmarking reports to help them understand how they’re stacking up against similar businesses. We offer safety compliance and productivity benchmarking reports to our customers, driven by basic demographic groups across:

• Geography
• Industry
• Location size

Benchmark reports show average score for a given metric for the customer against the distribution of average scores for all customers in the segment being compared against. It should show position in a distribution as well as percentile (or at least decile or quintile). We should avoid rank as it could expose us having a small number of customers in a given segment.
