Design and Development of Centralized and Decentralized Data of Occupational Health Safety Management System

Abstract

One of the fundamental problem in terms of social sustainability is Occupational Health and Safety (OHS). OHS is a set of procedures that aim to protect the health and safety of employees by preventing occupational diseases and accidents. OHS also tries to make the working environment and conditions better. Information and communication technologies are the foundation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, an era of cutting-edge technology. Implementing an OHS system is one way to prevent work accidents. OHS in the Workplace is affected by various aspects, including physics, biology, chemistry, psychology, and ergonomics. This research and development used mix of quantitative and qualitative methods, and also used primary and secondary data. This research and development aim to produce a web-based OHS Management System using agile development to support industries. In order to assess variables like air quality, temperature, humidity, and others, sensors can be installed in various places. These variables must be assessed to maintain employees health and safety per corporate or governmental policies. These parameters can be stored in a database and presented on dashboards to support warehouses or manufacturers. Gauge charts were mainly used to display data on the dashboard based on the nature of data and measurement, and line charts were used more in historical data. Data can be captured through sensors or manually input for inspection/testing to support compliance processes.
