Abstract

Introduction:   As occupational health changes, real-time feedback systems (RTFS) are becoming more and more seen as important tools for improving safety at work and the health and happiness of employees. This study looks into how well RTFS works for tracking and improving health results at work.
Methods:  We used a mixed-techniques approach, combining numeric data from machine usage logs with private feedback from person polls in some of distinct agencies. a group of 300 people from extraordinary backgrounds took component within the examine and had been given distinctive RTFS for 6 months. The link among gadget feedback and higher fitness and safety behaviour changed into looked at the use of statistical analysis.
Findings: The results show that RTFS made workplace health management a lot better. Quantitative data showed that accidents at work went down by 40% and environmental compliance went up by 25%. Qualitative data showed that 85% of the people who took part found the comments helpful for making their work habits and safety knowledge better.
Conclusion:  The study shows that RTFS has the ability to make workplaces better and healthier. RTFS not only lowers risks but also gives workers the power to take charge of their own health and safety by giving them instant insights and tips they can use. Putting these kinds of tools together could completely change how workplace health is managed, so more research and use of them in many different areas is needed.
