Concern about occupational health and safety (OSH) has always been a focus of attention for large and small companies worldwide. To reduce risks and prevent a high percentage of workplace accidents, many companies have invested in technologies that help guarantee worker safety. It is important to highlight that safety in the workplace is not only about implementing advanced technologies but also about creating a culture of safety in companies. However, various technologies are being used to improve OSH in different sectors. Due to the seriousness of this situation globally, many investigations have addressed the issue from different points of view. For our part, the main objective of this work is to reduce the number of workplace accidents. For this reason, a system was developed to collect health and location information from workers through a Smartwatch, specifically the Samsung Watch Series. This information is processed and displayed on the Smartwatch and in a web application that controls this data. The data collected is integrated into a dashboard that allows companies to see, in real-time, information about the health and location of their employees. Additionally, the dashboard allows a company to manage collection devices and determine life-threatening areas, flagging employees who enter that area. Additionally, with the Smartwatch's SOS trigger functionality, employees can request help in an emergency, providing a quick response from medical units.

Concern about occupational health and safety (OSH) has always been a focus of attention for large and small companies worldwide. To reduce risks and prevent a high percentage of workplace accidents, many companies have invested in technologies that help guarantee worker safety. It is important to highlight that safety in the workplace is not only about implementing advanced technologies but also about creating a culture of safety in companies. However, various technologies are being used to improve OSH in different sectors. Due to the seriousness of this situation globally, many investigations have addressed the issue from different points of view. For our part, the main objective of this work is to reduce the number of workplace accidents. For this reason, a system was developed to collect health and location information from workers through a Smartwatch, specifically the Samsung Watch Series. This information is processed and displayed on the Smartwatch and in a web application that controls this data. The data collected is integrated into a dashboard that allows companies to see, in real-time, information about the health and location of their employees. Additionally, the dashboard allows a company to manage collection devices and determine life-threatening areas, flagging employees who enter that area.
