| dc.description.abstract | This paper analyses the role of the Internet of Things in increasing worker safety and
productivity as well as improving performance appraisal methods in the factory setup. It
examines how IoT can be used to benefit both workers and management, and strengthen the
system of working in industrial plants. After reviewing literature on the topic, it is apparent
that IoT helps in monitoring and controlling worker actions, optimising performance, and
providing greater autonomy to employees. Advanced methods of evaluating worker
performance leveraging the applications of IoT and AI have been explored as well.
Furthermore, analysis of productivity levels has been carried out for workers in a steel plant
in India on the basis of data collected from IoT tags. The study depicts how IoT can allow
workers to perform tasks smoothly in their respective areas of expertise, along with a robust
system of communication. By preventing accidents and boosting productivity, a win-win
situation is created for workers and their families, as well as for factory owners and their
clients. | en_US |
