Abstract

Staying healthy in our workplaces is one of the most important priorities both for employers and employees, especially after the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Especially for older workers, that are more vulnerable, not only due to COVID-19 but also due to their chronic conditions that may be affecting their performance and productivity. This is more prevalent in western societies where populations are aging and people and governments start to consider staying at work longer to stay as active members of the society and live independently in better conditions. In this paper we present the SmartWork software suite that aims at building a worker-centric Internet of Things enabled system for workability sustainability, integrating unobtrusive sensing and modeling of the worker state with a suite of novel services for context and worker-aware adaptive work support. SmartWork is a ready to use, software suite tested in real-world installations that combines off-the-shelf and novel software and hardware components to provide workers with guidance on how to improve both their personal and professional lives.
