A Study on the Safety Accident Prevention System in conjunction with the Internet of Things

Recently, in an Internet of Things environment, devices (objects) with built-in sensors or communication functions are connected to the Internet by utilizing a physical network that allows objects equipped with IoT sensors and communication chips to automatically exchange real-time data without human intervention. It can collect surrounding information, exchange this information with other devices, and even make appropriate decisions. It can be said to be a huge state system of wired and wireless networking objects based on attached sensors and chips. Here, we provide a practical and systematic approach to overcome the limitations of preventing safety accidents such as safety education, safety equipment, and on-site safety inspections by securing a strong safety net against repeated occurrences of habitual electric shock accidents and to overcome the continuous occurrence of accidents despite multifaceted efforts to achieve zero accidents. Through transformation, the need to develop a system that combines accident prevention and IoT technology is emerging. With the implementation of the Severe Accident Punishment Act, key requirements such as setting safety and health goals and management policies, a dedicated safety and health organization, risk assessment, budget, safety and health management manager, deployment of professional personnel, listening to workers' opinions, and safety and emergency measures when entrusting contracts are stipulated. there is. It has been confirmed that it is useful in electrical safety prevention activities for the purpose of ensuring the safety and health of all people working in a business or workplace, as well as creating a safe environment by preventing safety accidents. © 2024 Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers.
