PPE Compliance Made Simple: How AI Monitors Workplace Safety 24/7
Learn how AI surveillance automates PPE compliance monitoring, prevents workplace accidents, and saves millions in safety violations and insurance costs.
# The Silent Crisis in Workplace Safety
Every 15 seconds, a worker dies from a work-related accident. Every day, 6,500 people die from occupational diseases. Most of these tragedies share one common factor: failure to use proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Yet monitoring PPE compliance remains one of the most challenging aspects of workplace safety.
