Ellen C
SHEQ Manager
Solent Stevedores are excited to work with spacebands to use their technology to allow us monitor HAVS and noise exposure for our staff, and help us continue to improve the safety of our workplaces for our teams
Mark C
HSE Director
We started off with spacebands on one site, and we've just rolled them out on another 3 sites. We don't just use them for NIHL, but also for HAVS, machine collisions and PPE reminders.
We find them really useful to get an overview on different hazards and the team actually use them, which makes my life easier!
Nick S
Plant Manager
One of the potential hurdles for us was our trade union, who quite rightly, want to protect the privacy of our workers. spacebands work anonymously, you could assign a wearable to a specific worker, but we use it holisticallly to measure exposure levels in a more general sense.
David N
Site Manager
We got spacebands thinking it would be the devices keeping people safe, but we weren't expecting the level of detail in the analytics platform and the suggestions it provides to improve safety. It's allowed us to see areas in need of improvement.
