Abstract:
The application of technology in the area of occupational health and safety (OSH) presents many opportunities for improving applied research as a means to boost innovation in activities involving work at height. Workplace training and qualifications are tools to contribute to the safety of employees. The implementation of immersive Virtual Reality (VR) has the purpose to cause different stimuli in the human body. The methodology explains the collection of physiological data from workers in training at two different stages, providing them with distinctive audio-visual experiences. First, the physiological parameters are collected, using the electrocardiograph, without the use of the VR goggles. In a second moment, the parameters are, once again collected, but with the use of the VR goggles by the individual. Hence, this work aims to develop a platform for recording occupational safety training for activities at height and to monitor the physiological indicators of these workers. Occupational data and dashboards are generated for managers to base decisions more assertively and monitor the occurrence of these training. Thus, the organization improves its ability to train workers more interactively and dynamically, improving the absorption of the contents of OSH training and allowing the replication of the training in a faster and easier way, promoting safer behaviors in the work environment.
