The wearable alerts workers whenever a hazard is about to happen.
Data is stored by the device and sent to the spacebands cloud server when the wearable is placed on the charging dock.
The wearable is designed to be extremely robust and it is suitable to wear in extreme weather. The device is waterproof and features an adjustable strap with a quick-release mechanism for safety.
Full charge is obtained after four hours of charging, the device can then be worn for an entire day (24 hours) before it requires charging again.
spacebands have a range of safety features designed to save lives, improve awareness and reduce costs.
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.

No. The wearable device does not have GPS or internet connection functionality. The device is a safety tool, not a tracking device. However, each device can be assigned to an individual if the company desires, so that any accident or near miss information will be attributable to the wearer the device is assigned to.
In most cases the wearables are not available to buy outright. This is because the products regularly receive software updates without our customers needing to purchase more devices.
However, there are extenuating circumstances where customers can request to purchase hardware outright; short-term construction builds for example. Software will always require a monthly licence to access however. Get in touch with us for a quote if you’re interested in purchasing devices outright.
Employee and business privacy is at the forefront of all spacebands development. All data will be anonymous as standard, unless a specific device is assigned to a specific user. Employers can decide if they want to track safety and stress at work on an individual basis or as a collective dataset.
spacebands has a range of safety features that it alerts the wearer about including PPE prompts, certification access control, access control to warn workers entering an area they aren’t meant to be in, machine to person collision warnings, HAVS warnings, decibel monitoring, lone workers, SOS features, trips and falls and environment temperature monitoring.
All safety features save instances of accidents and near misses; this information is saved to the analytics dashboard, where the information gathered can be used to identify areas in need of improvement.
Yes, each wearable is able to display the battery level. The charge on an individual device lasts a minimum of 24 hours.
