Preventing Injuries with AI Wearables: WearHealth in "Connected Magazine"

AI in Action: WearHealth in Connected Magazine

We’re thrilled to see WearHealth mentioned in the latest issue of Connected Magazine as part of the article “How AI wearable technology is transforming workplace safetyin the UK”.

At WearHealth, our mission is clear: to prevent workplace injuries before they happen — using AI-powered wearable technology tailored for logistics and industrial environments. The Connected magazine highlights how innovations like ours are reshaping safety strategies.

Why AI Is a Game-Changer for Injury Prevention

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), caused by lifting, twisting, repetitive movements, and awkward postures, are still the leading cause of work-related absence across Europe and globally. Traditional training and observation-based methods often fail to capture the real exposure and individual risk of workers on the floor.

That’s where AI-powered wearables step in.

What Makes the WearHealth Approach Unique?

WearHealth uses lightweight, sensor-based wearables to capture real-time movement data. Our AI then evaluates ergonomic risks using scientifically validated models such as RULA and REBA. Here's what makes it powerful:

• up to 78% reduction in high-risk ergonomic behaviors
• Real-time feedback to workers through vibration and visual signals
• Anonymous, continuous monitoring without workflow disruption
• Objective risk insights instead of subjective observations

Results show improved posture awareness, reduced fatigue, and stronger engagement in safety culture. This not only prevents injuries, but also supports workforce well-being, sustainability and performance.

From Research to Real-World Impact

AI isn't just hype — it’s already being used to transform physically demanding workplaces. With real-time ergonomics and actionable insights, companies can:

• Reduce lost workdays
• Optimize task design
• Ensure early detection of overload patterns
• Build a safer, data-driven workplace

❓FAQ: AI & Ergonomics in the Workplace

How does wearable AI detect ergonomic risks?
Wearable sensors track body movement and repetition. AI algorithms compare this data with ergonomic assessment models to identify risky postures and behaviors.

Is real-time feedback disruptive to workers?
No. Feedback is delivered via gentle vibration or visual cues and is designed to support awareness — not distraction.

Is personal data tracked?
No individual identification is required. All data is anonymized and aggregated, respecting GDPR and privacy policies.

How quickly can companies see results?
Most pilot programs show measurable behavior changes within 2–3 weeks, with immediate awareness improvements.
