Innovative Applications of Information Technology in Work Safety Guarantee: A Literature Review

This literature review delves into creative uses of information technology in challenges at work that ensure the overcoming of problems within traditional practice on safety and safety enhancement. The analysis, however, would be done for the specific role of the technologies as it involves the roles of AI, IoT, AR/VR, wearable devices, and BIM, where there is high-quality risk assessment, monitoring, and training implemented and enhanced. This method involves a systematic review of recent scholarly articles, industry reports, and case studies in the last five years, Findings: It shows that these technologies are useful for monitoring in real-time, predicting risks, and training in an immersive environment in ways compliant with safety regulations across industries. Wearable technologies ensure real-time alerts ensure worker safety; IoT enables continuous monitoring; and AI-based systems enhance predictive analytics. Still, these can be fully leveraged only when the data privacy issue, adaptability of the technology, and interoperability issues are addressed. Therefore, the aftermath of this review demands that organizations include these technologies in reducing workplace hazards, improving operational efficiency, and creating a proactive safety culture. In the future, it will be more about data security, including blockchain, advanced AI models for the prediction of risk, and unified platforms for cross-sector collaboration in sustainably enhancing workplace safety.
