Hours of physical labor in both extreme hot and cold environments, high humidity, machinery, welding and more. Construction work can be dangerous and for those working in extreme conditions, the risks of heat exhaustion, heat stroke and hypothermia are very real. Construction workers account for more than one-third of occupational heat-related deaths, according to data from the Center for Construction Research and Training. Roofers are seven times more likely, and cement masons are more than 10 times more likely than the average construction worker to die from heat-related conditions
PassPatch is a cost-effective preventative solution:
- A small piece of non-invasive, wearable and portable personal protective equipment (PPE) for construction workers that reports back to a central monitor.
- An alert is issued when a person’s body temperature approaches a range indicating heat stress.
- This enables safety protocols to be deployed to immediately locate and care for the worker in distress.
PassPatch offers remote monitoring with a centralized notification system and easily functions in both extreme heat and cold environments.
PassPatch can help save the lives of construction workers around the world.
As the climate changes and residential, commercial and industrial construction sites are increasingly affected by droughts, floods and extreme fluctuations in temperature, it’s become vitally important to monitor the health and safety of workers.
