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.
