Mining Company Reduces Fleet Turnover and Increases Worker Accountability Using iAssign™ Tags and RGX® Gateway.

A large underground mineral mining company in Canada struggled with managing their large fleet of personal gas detectors after workers began leaving them behind in the mine. Without data from the monitors, it was impossible to report on exposure incidents or address inappropriate worker behavior, increasing the risk of gas-related incidents in the mine. The company often had to replace the missing monitors, costing them time and money while they waited to replenish their fleet.

The safety management team needed a solution that would allow them to enforce safety policy to protect their workers from atmospheric hazards while preventing loss of their equipment.

“Industrial Scientific’s Ventis® Pro Series Multi-Gas Monitors provide gas detection, lone worker monitoring, and the necessary data to change the way people work”
