Smart Safety & Health Care in Cities

The emerging technology of Internet of Things (IoT) has become essential in several applications, more specifically health and safety products, and used by many growing organizations. The IoT has already enabled these bodies to develop a new network of intercommunicating objects of consumers' everyday life. Companies staffing many (potentially thousands) of employees may require hundreds of health and safety systems in continuous use. Building Service Managers, however, do not know which devices needs maintenance or replenishment and require significant amount of time to continuously check that their health and safety systems are maintained according to legislation requirements. The consequences of companies not meeting their health and safety obligations are serious and expensive if any of their employees are seriously injured as a consequence of the health and safety products not being in their original, immaculate order for use. Furthermore, insurance companies will refuse to pay compensation for injury to employees if it has been shown that the health and safety products are not in their original, immaculate order for use. Therefore, design and use an IoT based monitoring system to record the state of health and safety products within companies is an urgent response to market. This paper presents consequences and associated procedures for efficient application of the IoT.
