What international research shows
Published findings on this kind of intervention elsewhere, not results measured on this site.
Video PPE detection is still new and has little independent outcome research of its own. The closest evidence is on behaviour-based safety, which observes work and feeds back on unsafe acts: a meta-analysis of 73 programmes across the paper, petroleum, chemical and food industries found incident rates kept falling over five years after introduction.
