BOSTON, May 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SmartSense by Digi®,
(www.smartsense.co), today announced Safetemps, a scalable and
cost-effective health screening solution. SmartSense is the IoT
Solutions division of Digi International®, (NASDAQ: DGII)
(www.digi.com), a leading global provider of Internet of Things
(IoT) connectivity products and services. The new Safetemps
solution helps businesses reopen amid the COVID-19 outbreak by
enabling organizations to implement a simple health screening
process that identifies potentially sick employees in just 10
seconds via a configurable digital questionnaire and touchless
infrared thermometer.
Screening results are captured digitally and available in
enterprise-wide reporting tools, allowing organizations to roll
information up across locations and geographies to better
understand the health of their workforce and impact on their
business.
"We provide monitoring for nearly 70,000 sites, protecting
critical environments for pharmacies, hospitals, and foodservice
organizations," said Kevin C. Riley,
President, SmartSense by Digi. "When our healthcare customers were
called on to support the rapid rollout of COVID-19 testing, these
same customers turned to SmartSense for condition monitoring of
their pop-up testing locations. As this global pandemic has
progressed, our customers have again approached us – this time for
a solution to aid their eventual reopening and to maintain a
healthy workforce as they welcome back employees."
The Safetemps solution is designed for any company or leader
looking to make informed, data-driven decisions about their
workforce and operations in real time. All via a single,
easy-to-use IoT solution, executives can track percentage of
employees screened and admitted, from single locations to across
multiple geographies worldwide; human resources can account for
employees who are in self-quarantine or have been asked to work
remotely; and direct managers can know the wellness of their shift
workers.
"We operate more than 100 retail locations in the Midwest and
have been utilizing the SmartSense solution for food safety,
pharmacy and fleet to help protect our customers," said
Nathan Tykwinski, vice president of
operations at Coborn's, Inc. "We are in the process of rolling out
a health screening program for our employees and have previewed the
Safetemps solution. The combination of IR scanning and digital
capture is very compelling."
The Safetemps digital employee health screening solution – which
includes digital checklists, enterprise reporting tools, and the
option for touchless infrared thermometers – is available on
June 1, 2020. To learn more about
