CNH enhances workplace safety

Share this item

Innovation at CNH goes beyond the products from their brands.  The company continues to invest in solutions that improve the quality of how the staff works and what they make. These include ergonomic technologies that enhance workplace safety, efficiency, and productivity at all global sites of CNH.

The company prioritizes operator safety. One of the ways they are doing so is by running trials across manufacturing sites to assess operator wellbeing. Successfully trialed ergonomic analysis technology helps reduce the risk of skeletal and muscular injuries. This technology uses AI to assess the ranges of an individual’s movement, and then identifies how working processes can be improved. All movement data collected is fully anonymized and linked exclusively to the workstation for safety-related project use.

At the Case IH and New Holland plant in Curitiba, Brazil, a partnership with the ergonomic assessment technology company Kinebot, resulted in reduced ergonomic analysis time and better employee wellbeing.

A similar trial at the Case IH and New Holland plant in Saskatoon, Canada, resulted in zero incidents following the use of wearable devices that track and monitor the range of spine and shoulder movements of employees to ensure they are working in the most ergonomic way. This has resulted in the adoption of this technology across other CNH sites, and continues to be deployed.
