Innovation at CNH goes beyond the products from our iconic brands. We continue to invest in cutting-edge solutions across our company that improve the quality of how we work and what we make. These include technologies that enhance workplace safety, efficiency, and productivity at all our global sites.
We continue to prioritize operator safety. One of the ways we are doing so is by running trials across manufacturing sites to assess operator wellbeing. We have successfully trialed ergonomic analysis technology, which helps reduce the risk of skeletal and muscular injuries. This technology uses AI to assess the ranges of an individual’s movement, and then identifies how our processes can be improved. All movement data collected is fully anonymized and linked exclusively to the workstation for safety-related project use.
At our Case IH and New Holland plant in Curitiba, Brazil, a partnership with the ergonomic assessment technology company Kinebot, resulted in reduced ergonomic analysis time and better employee wellbeing.
A similar trial at our Case IH and New Holland plant in Saskatoon, Canada, resulted in zero incidents following the use of wearable devices that track and monitor the range of spine and shoulder movements of employees to ensure they are working in the most ergonomic way. This has resulted in the adoption of this technology across other CNH sites, and continues to be deployed.
