The construction industry is one of the industry sectors where the greatest number of accidents occur. The percent-age of accident risk is closely linked to the organization's organizational choices. Wrong choices and behaviors de-termine a consistent increase. The goal is to identify a pre-vention strategy that is not perceived as a major financial burden on the part of the enterprise, but as an investment opportunity. The continuous increase in accidents in construction sites is driving intensification of efforts and investments in techno-logical research to identify effective solutions for accident prevention. An innovative solution consists of the latest generation RFId (Radio-Frequency Identification) systems, which, if applied to medium and large building sites, will reduce the number of injuries while at the same time increasing em-ployee accountability in the use of Individual protection devices. RFId sensors, installed on both worker and on-site equip-ment and machinery, access control, etc., allow you to define an "intelligent" building site through constant moni-toring and management of all stages and work processes. New systems enable "real-time" intervention and are an important support for identifying risk situations and organ-izing remedial measures.

Abstract
The construction industry is one of the industry sectors where the greatest number of accidents occur. The percent-age of accident risk is closely linked to the organization's organizational choices. Wrong choices and behaviors de-termine a consistent increase. The goal is to identify a pre-vention strategy that is not perceived as a major financial burden on the part of the enterprise, but as an investment opportunity. The continuous increase in accidents in construction sites is driving intensification of efforts and investments in techno-logical research to identify effective solutions for accident prevention. An innovative solution consists of the latest generation RFId (Radio-Frequency Identification) systems, which, if applied to medium and large building sites, will reduce the number of injuries while at the same time increasing em-ployee accountability in the use of Individual protection devices. RFId sensors, installed on both worker and on-site equip-ment and machinery, access control, etc., allow you to define an "intelligent" building site through constant moni-toring and management of all stages and work processes. New systems enable "real-time" intervention and are an important support for identifying risk situations and organ-izing remedial measures.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
