PROPOSAL OF AN INTERNET OF THINGS-BASED SOLUTION TO MONITOR PHYSICAL FACTORS IN THE WORKPLACE

Abstract

This article investigates the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the monitoring of physical factors such as temperature, humidity, luminosity and noise, in indoor work environments, with the objective of preventing damage to the physical and mental health of employees of the Regional Electoral Court of Goiás – TRE/GO and other organizations. In addition, it addresses the relationship that these physical agents have with the quality of life in the work environment, with organizational productivity and performance, as well as with the effective management of people. The results indicate that the implementation of IoT-based solutions can facilitate the management of environmental factors, positively interfering in the quality of life at work and in the physical and mental health of employees. It was also demonstrated that data collection, through IoT, can favor evidence-based decision-making by managers, and consequently, increase the productivity and performance of employees, as well as improve people management.
