Construction is the deadliest sector in the world for workers. Lack of regulation and safety procedures increases this tool even more at developing countries. In the Philippines, the fatal injury rate in construction has been steadily increasing since 2011 and reflects the same trend seen throughout the Asia Pacific region, according to the International Labour Organisation. The region is home to 70% of work related deaths worldwideThe UtterBerry sensor system can improve the safety of construction sites by monitoring the infrastructure of both the project and the site to alert relevant workers when a harmful or fatal event occurs anywhere within the sensor networks coverage.Tested in the UK by Network Rail and Thameswater, UtterBerry's small sensors, embedded in structures provide predictive tools to mitigate against a huge range of events from changing weather conditions to structural stability enabling better informed decisions about the operation of construction and manufacturing sites, generating more employment stability and protecting the health and safety of workers on site.At this project, UtterBerry will work with Connected Places Catapult (CPC) and in the Philippines, to identify ways in which this product can be embedded into infrastructure development in the country and the region.

对工人来说，建筑业是世界上最致命的行业。在发展中国家，缺乏监管和安全程序使这一工具更加猖獗。根据国际劳工组织（International Labour Organisation）的数据，自2011年以来，菲律宾建筑业的致命伤害率一直在稳步上升，这反映了整个亚太地区的趋势。该地区是全球70%与工作有关的死亡人数的家园。UtterBerry传感器系统可以通过监测项目和现场的基础设施，在传感器网络覆盖范围内的任何地方发生有害或致命事件时提醒相关工人，从而提高建筑工地的安全性。通过英国Network Rail和Thameswater的测试，嵌入在结构中的UtterBerry小型传感器提供了预测工具，以减轻从天气条件变化到结构稳定性的各种事件，从而更好地了解建筑和制造现场的操作，从而产生更多的就业稳定性，并保护现场工人的健康和安全。在该项目中，UtterBerry将与Connected Places Catapult （CPC）以及菲律宾合作，以确定将该产品嵌入该国和该地区基础设施发展的方式。
