Connected Technology: Creating a Single Pane of Glass for Workplace Exposure Risk

Health & Safety professionals are increasingly expected to manage complex industrial hygiene risks such as noise, vibration, and dust, often using fragmented data from multiple sources. Traditional monitoring methods can make it difficult to gain a clear, timely picture of worker exposure across roles, tasks, and environments.


This session explores how connected technology is enabling a more integrated approach by bringing multiple exposure data streams into a single, unified view — a “single pane of glass” for workplace risk. By combining real time monitoring with connected analytics, Health & Safety teams can move beyond disconnected datasets to gain clearer visibility of exposure patterns as work takes place.


The discussion will touch on evolving approaches to vibration management, including emerging 2026 considerations for HAVS and forthcoming ISO guidance, and how regular, task level exposure data is influencing how organisations monitor and manage risk.


 Attendees will gain insight into how connected ecosystems and collaboration with industry leaders in noise and dust monitoring are supporting more informed decision making for Health & Safety and industrial hygiene teams alike.
