FUSE USER MANUAL
The FUSE Risk Management Platform is a system comprised of a wearable strap and
device, a smart charging dock, and a web-enabled software platform. The FUSE Risk
Management Platform is designed to provide a standard baseline measurement for all
employees at the potential of injuries, including but not limited to lower back injuries. The
Safety Score is an indicator for improper conditions and/ or maneuvering, which if not
corrected could result in lower back injury among other possible injuries.
This Safety Score and data may help inform organizations on how to eectively and
actively manage the workforce through safety driven insights and provide productivity
and nancial analyses. The FUSE Risk Management Platform can provide organizations
with real-time safety data to employers and the users – which can provide immediate
corrective feedback via alerts.
