  • Assessing Next-Generation Construction Helmets
    Assessing Next-Generation May 2018 Construction Helmets The KASK - Zenith and Superplasma Helmets Skanska’s Advancement In Head Protection Pilot Program Current Status Currently, Skanska uses the MSA V-Gard as its primary choice of hard hat head protection. This hard hat was introduced to the US 56 years ago. The V Guard (and all other regular styles of hard hats) primarily protects against objects striking the crown of a person’s head. This type of head protection offers minimal, if any protection to the front, rear and sides of the head. Comparatively, head protection such as the KASK helmet (not a hard hat) offers much more protection. Although it is listed as Type I head protection, it has passed ANSI Type II impact tests to the front, rear and sides. The Need for Change Skanska USA is investigating the advancements of head protection for employees working on its projects. Helmets being piloted on our projects include products from KASK, MSA Nexius, and 3M X5000. There are many reasons why we are looking to improve the current head protection. The primary reason is the fact that head injuries of all classifications still occur on our projects. These injuries vary on the spectrum of severity, from minimal in nature to catastrophic. Plain and simple: changes in head protection are needed in our industry. Skanska is looking to champion these efforts through an in-depth evaluation of different types of head protection, including the KASK helmets described in this white paper. A thorough list of the reasons for change include: • During any fall incident (slips, trips and falls from the same level, falls from ladders, falls from wall forms, etc.) the current hard hat is prone to fall off a worker’s head prior to impact because of the tendency for the head to “snap backwards,” leaving the head exposed when protection is most needed.

    Using smart glasses and augmented reality head-mounted displays to drive supply chain innovation A series exploring Industry 4.0 technologies and their potential impact for enabling digital supply networks in manufacturing Using smart glasses and augmented reality head-mounted displays to drive supply chain innovation Contents What are smart glasses and augmented reality HMDs? 4 Benefits of smart glasses and AR in the supply chain 6 Criteria for evaluation and adoption 8 Key applications for smart glasses in your supply chain 10 Getting started with smart glasses and augmented reality devices 11 Key Deloitte contacts in smart glasses and augmented reality 12 02 Using smart glasses and augmented reality head-mounted displays to drive supply chain innovation Do you need smart glasses in your supply chain? Smart glasses are already being used to improve quality, standardize workflows, accelerate decision making, and enhance communication in logistics, manufacturing, and maintenance operations throughout the supply chain. Of interest because: A trend in more universal, data-driven decision making is evolving just as leaps in hardware and software capability have led to smaller, more ergonomic devices. Could improve your supply chain by: Boosting labor effectiveness and productivity; reducing quality defects and rework; improving workflow standardization; enhancing workforce collaboration; improving safety. Why not? The technology is still rapidly evolving and has not yet reached operational maturity. Companies will have to understand how they will leverage data for critical use cases and should expect difficult integration challenges. Deloitte recommends: Evaluate the business case for smart glasses and augmented reality in your supply chain and pilot on a small number of critical use cases.

  • Most Face Shields, Goggles, and Safety Glasses Can Be Cleaned/Disinfected and Re-Used
    COVID-19: Cleaning and Disinfection of Face Shields, Goggles and Safety Glasses Most face shields, goggles, and safety glasses can be cleaned/disinfected and re-used. In general, eye protection should be dedicated for individual use and should not be shared. Eye protection should be cleaned and disinfected between uses. Cleaning products and PPE required Sink or running water, soap (e.g. dish soap), disinfectant wipes approved for use against COVID-19 (Health Canada DIN number), and disposable gloves (nitrile, vinyl). Inspect eye protection Goggles, safety glasses, and face shields without foam: Inspect the eye protection for damage (e.g. broken bands or straps, scratches on visor or lens). If the eye protection appears damaged or compromised, DO NOT REUSE. Face shields with visor and foam for forehead comfort: Inspect the face shield for damage. If the foam piece of the face shield is visibly soiled or the face shield appears damaged or compromised, DO NOT REUSE. Cleaning and disinfection Eye protection should be cleaned following manufacturer’s instructions. Review the manufacturer’s instructions for the type of eye protection you are using and for the cleaner/disinfectant. If instructions are not available, use the following steps: 1. Place eye protection on a clean surface. 2. Perform hand hygiene. 3. Put on a new pair of disposable gloves (if indicated by disinfectant label). 4. Clean: Using a clean cloth with soap, clean the inside followed by the outside. Rinse with water and remove excess water. For goggles and face shields, keep the straps and foam from getting wet. Allow eye protection to dry or dry with a clean absorbent cloth.
