MākuSafe Expands Connected Worker Platform To Support Extended Remote And Field Work

New capability extends leading indicator safety intelligence beyond fixed facilities

MākuSafe announced today an expansion of its connected worker platform, enabling organizations to extend leading-indicator safety intelligence to remote and field-based employees. The new MākuSafe Field Kit deployment option supports workers who rarely return to a central facility, including field service technicians, route personnel, merchandisers, and distributed maintenance teams.

This expansion reflects MākuSafe’s continued pace of innovation, extending the functionality of its solution in response to client demand. Organizations that have achieved measurable safety improvements in their facilities using MākuSafe data have requested the same level of insight into the real working conditions experienced by their remote teams.

“With our clients seeing strong results inside their facilities, the next step was clear,” said Gabriel Glynn, CEO and co-founder of MākuSafe. “They want the same leading indicator insights for their field and remote workers. We are moving quickly to extend the reach of our platform so safety leaders can understand actual working conditions and take proactive, preventive action wherever work happens.”

MākuSafe’s connected worker technology captures leading-indicator data and MyVoice frontline communication reports, which are analyzed within the platform and used by EHS managers and operations leaders. These insights help organizations make proactive changes, implement controls, and re-engineer work based on objective data evidence, rather than relying solely on lagging indicators or incident reports.

Organizations use real-time MākuSafe insights to address critical impact areas such as reducing strain and exertion risks, managing heat exposure, understanding the context of work and fatigue, monitoring air quality, improving communication and engagement, re-engineering work processes, and identifying opportunities for productivity gains. The expanded remote and field capabilities allow these insights to be applied consistently across both fixed facilities and distributed operations, creating a unified view of risk and performance.

Initial deployments are underway with several of MākuSafe’s longest-term clients, including organizations with extensive teams working in the field.

“We’ve achieved great improvement using MākuSafe data and insights for workers in our facilities,” said a client EHS Manager. “This gives us the opportunity to have awareness of actual working conditions and situations so we can keep our field workers safe, even though they don’t return to a facility at the end of their day.”

The solution maintains MākuSafe’s commitment to worker privacy. The system collects no personally identifiable information or biometrics, and there is no continuous tracking of workers. Location data is used only to provide context for where hazards or exposures occur.

MakuSafe officially launched its solution in early 2020 after years of development and piloting. Today, the company has thousands of users on its platform, works with scores of customers across the globe, and has monitored more than 8.5 million hours of work and gathered billions of data points about industrial hazards.
