Building Technology To Innovate Industrial Health & Safety

Building Technology To Innovate Industrial Health & Safety | Vita by Pillar

At Pillar, we are on a mission to improve health and fitness outcomes through real-time and continuous monitoring, evaluation and recommendation. We have developed incredible technology including the general capability to measure exertion levels and readiness to exert oneself.

With this technology, we have built a product that will enable managers to protect their workers from overexertion and accidents that come from the worker being in a fatigued state. Our product provides a full picture of workers’ physical and mental readiness. This helps managers to understand whether colleagues are ready to work and ensure that only those who are ready to work, are working. Vita by Pillar enables managers to create a safer working environment.

The physiological state of the worker is an important risk factor in an industrial context. Worker overexertion and fatigue is the leading major event resulting in occupational injuries or illnesses. In 2015, in the US it accounted for **33% of total injuries**. Workplace injuries cost US employers **>$140Bn** per annum, with >$35Bn of this being within the Construction, Oil & Gas, and Transport verticals.

We are proud to be pioneering a new technology that will help create a safer working environment. This product will allow us to achieve our mission of helping to improve the health and fitness of individuals on a greater scale by becoming part of their working lives. We will continue to support athletes with their health and fitness goals through our Pillar Cycling App.

Thank you for your support. We are excited to now be improving the health and fitness outcomes of individuals in their working lives as well as their personal lives.
