"Mental and physical fatigue due to long working hours, lack of adequate rest periods, and not being properly fed / hydrated could lead to an accident and also cause increased levels of illness and stress. Whilst often manageable over short periods of high demand, prolonged periods of such working can have cumulative effects which are less easy to manage" BBC, 2016.
The role of a security guard is important for protecting private property and the people who reside or work on the premises they guard. However, there are several risks that security guards often face that security managers should consider to avoid liability or injury.
Some common safety concerns include falls, trips, fire hazards, road accidents, bumps and collisions. Moreover, physical hazards, such as insufficient lighting, noise and inappropriate levels of temperature, ventilation and humidity, can put your security guards' health and safety at risk
The KOS Wearable can help mitigate those risk by providing you with real time alerts, corrective measures with our fatigue management software and FRMS training.
