About SafetyTech Accelerator: Work to Zero has launched a new pilot program collaboration with Safetytech Accelerator, a non-profit established by Lloyd’s Register and the Lloyd’s Register Foundation. Through the partnership, the organizations are helping employers trial and adopt safety technology to save lives.
Work to Zero benefits from Safetytech Accelerator’s experience in organizing innovation challenges and managing technology pilots, including launching trials that incorporate data analytics, AI, computer analytics, AR/VR, sensors and wearables, drones and robotics technologies to life-saving safety applications. For this pilot program, the first focus area will be on examining technologies with the potential to prevent fatal incidents associated with working at height, a leading cause of workplace fatalities in the construction industry, among many others.

To eliminate workplace fatalities by 2050 through the adoption of emerging technology
Since 1913, the National Safety Council has used data, expertise and innovation to solve tough workplace safety problems. With thousands of workers dying each year, NSC is working to change that through its Work to Zero initiative, designed to eliminate workplace fatalities through the use of technology.
Our Mission
Our Approach
Research: Research the most effective technologies and ways to integrate them into the workplace.
Education: Provide educational resources to increase the adoption of technology.
Partnerships: Foster key partnerships with stakeholders in the field to strengthen everyone’s work.
The Importance of Partnerships
To accomplish the Work to Zero mission, it will take many great minds working together to spread the word. Fostering key partnerships with stakeholders in the field will help strengthen everyone’s work.
