摘要

工作场所接触有害物质是导致健康不良的一个重要原因。使用可穿戴传感器和传感技术可能有助于改善和维护工人的健康、安全和福祉。在将这些传感器集成到工作场所时,应听取工人的意见。我们开发了一项在线调查,以了解可穿戴传感器技术在职业健康与安全(OSH)管理方面的可接受性。调查对象主要是英国和荷兰的职业健康和安全相关组织成员。共有 158 名受访者,超过半数(n = 91,58%)的受访者表示目前正在使用可穿戴式传感器,包括物理危害(n = 57,36%)、空气质量(n = 53,34%)和位置跟踪(n = 36,23%),不过这一比例也可能包括传统的监测设备。可穿戴传感器的使用在报告的人口统计学特征和职业特征之间没有明显区别,但卫生学家比非卫生学家(如安全专业人士)更有可能使用可穿戴传感器(66% 对 34%)。总的来说,人们对传感器如何帮助职业安全和健康专业人员了解接触模式和改进接触管理实践很感兴趣。但也有一些人表示有顾虑,主要是环境和物理限制、数据质量和隐私问题。这项调查发现,有必要更好地确定可从可穿戴传感器中获益的职业情况,并对可用于职业卫生的现有设备进行评估。此外,这项工作还强调了根据职业环境和背景明确定义 "传感器 "的重要性。

Worker perspectives on improving occupational health and safety using wearable sensors: a cross-sectional survey.

Workplace exposure is an important source of ill health. The use of wearable sensors and sensing technologies may help improve and maintain worker health, safety, and wellbeing. Input from workers should inform the integration of these sensors into workplaces. We developed an online survey to understand the acceptability of wearable sensor technologies for occupational health and safety (OSH) management. The survey was disseminated to members of OSH-related organizations, mainly in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. There were 158 respondents, with over half (n = 91, 58%) reporting current use of wearable sensors, including physical hazards (n = 57, 36%), air quality (n = 53, 34%), and location tracking (n = 36, 23%), although this prevalence likely also captures traditional monitoring equipment. There were no clear distinctions in wearable sensor use between the reported demographic and occupational characteristics, with the exception that hygienists were more likely than non-hygienists (e.g. safety professionals) to use wearable sensors (66% versus 34%). Overall, there was an interest in how sensors can help OSH professionals understand patterns of exposure and improve exposure management practices. Some wariness was expressed primarily around environmental and physical constraints, the quality of the data, and privacy concerns. This survey identified a need to better identify occupational situations that would benefit from wearable sensors and to evaluate existing devices that could be used for occupational hygiene. Further, this work underscores the importance of clearly defining "sensor" according to the occupational setting and context.

期刊介绍: About the Journal Annals of Work Exposures and Health is dedicated to presenting advances in exposure science supporting the recognition, quantification, and control of exposures at work, and epidemiological studies on their effects on human health and well-being. A key question we apply to submission is, "Is this paper going to help readers better understand, quantify, and control conditions at work that adversely or positively affect health and well-being?" We are interested in high quality scientific research addressing: the quantification of work exposures, including chemical, biological, physical, biomechanical, and psychosocial, and the elements of work organization giving rise to such exposures; the relationship between these exposures and the acute and chronic health consequences for those exposed and their families and communities; populations at special risk of work-related exposures including women, under-represented minorities, immigrants, and other vulnerable groups such as temporary, contingent and informal sector workers; the effectiveness of interventions addressing exposure and risk including production technologies, work process engineering, and personal protective systems; policies and management approaches to reduce risk and improve health and well-being among workers, their families or communities; methodologies and mechanisms that underlie the quantification and/or control of exposure and risk. There is heavy pressure on space in the journal, and the above interests mean that we do not usually publish papers that simply report local conditions without generalizable results. We are also unlikely to publish reports on human health and well-being without information on the work exposure characteristics giving rise to the effects. We particularly welcome contributions from scientists based in, or addressing conditions in, developing economies that fall within the above scope.
