spacebands are helping Health & Safety managers around the world reduce accidents, injuries and legal claims
spacebands were a game-changer for us. We can now monitor HAVS and loud noise easily on workers moving between different areas on site. Now I feel confident we have the best tools to keep our team safe.
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!
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.
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.
Investing in spacebands is a great way to prove to your workforce that you genuinely care about their safety and well-being at work.
Our system keeps employees safe, as well as saving HSE managers significant time spent on admin, freeing up time to focus on keeping your team safe.

As an employer, you have legal responsibilities to provide your employees with work breaks. The responsibilities differ depending on the jurisdiction and industry you operate in.It's important for employers to be aware of their legal responsibilities regarding work breaks and to ensure that they are providing their employees with the required breaks and keeping accurate records. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in legal and financial consequences for employers.
Work break reminder devices can provide numerous benefits for employers and employees, including improved productivity, reduced risk of injury, compliance with labour laws, improved employee morale, and customisable settings.
Yes, you can set your spacebands device to alert users to take a rest break every hour, every 2 hours, or similar. This is useful in jobs where workers are using heavy machinery and need to take regular breaks for concentration/safety reasons (such as HAVS).
