3 / The problem today

When someone asks what happened, where is the evidence?

Inspections leave gaps between visits

Your team records what it sees during each inspection. Between visits, a violation may go undocumented, leaving a gap when you need to review PPE use checks in that area.

Photos and notes are scattered

A photo in a chat, a time in a spreadsheet and no camera identification. Bringing this information together takes time and makes it harder to establish the context of an incident.

Reviews rely on memory

Without a searchable history, comparing accounts and identifying recurring violations means reconstructing each incident. Your team lacks a shared reference for assessing violations and preparing records for analysis.

4 / How it works

From the camera image to a traceable record.

On site Local inference and storage

01

Cameras

ONVIF or RTSP capture the monitored area.

02

Device

Detects the infraction and stores the record locally.

04 / Two paths

Alerts

From setup to the team routine

Define the camera and the rule

Assess existing cameras using ONVIF or RTSP, or new camera locations. Configure the required PPE and the restricted area monitored by each camera.

Record the detected violation

The device at your plant processes the images. A detected violation creates photographic evidence with its date, time, camera and type, available for review in the platform.

Review the evidence

Open the photo in the platform from the alert link. Check the date, camera and violation type, and use history filters to review the incident.

5 / What your team receives

Records your team can find and review.

Alerts to guide your response

WhatsApp and email alerts include violation details and a link to view the photo in the platform.

A photo to review the violation

Review the photo, date, time, camera and violation type. An X marks the missing PPE to help your team review the incident.

Rules for each monitored area

Define restricted areas for each camera and the required PPE for each area. Restricted area intrusion generates a record and an alert according to your configuration.

Work permits linked to monitoring

Receive work permits via API, link cameras to active permits and monitor the required PPE. Integration is assessed as part of the project.

Connect the record to the work permit

Work permits received by API can be linked to cameras. Related violations can be consulted in the platform.

6 / Who it is for

A shared history for safety checks, assessment and integration.

Workplace safety teams and auditors

Find violations with photos and context to review PPE use checks in monitored areas.

Plant management

Use the history to discuss recurring violations with your team and guide the response in each area.

IT and integration

Assess image sources, access roles and work permit integration via API.

7 / Compliance support

Support for PPE use checks and evidence preparation.

For activities related to Brazil's NR-6 regulation, photos and historical records support checks on PPE use. Detecting PPE presence does not certify its suitability. Records help organize information for analysis related to ISO 45001. They do not constitute compliance certification or automatically establish legal validity. SafeWatch is an administrative control that complements, and does not replace, engineering controls.

8 / Inside the platform

Find the violation and check its context.

In the platform illustrations, review the photo, the missing PPE marked with an X, the date, time and camera. Explore the history filters and dashboard indicators.

9 / Evidence

Examine the record before assessing its application.

Bench images and fictional data show how evidence can be reviewed. Check the record fields, the context of each image and the filters available in the platform.

10 / Frequently asked questions

Questions from safety, operations and IT teams.

Does it work with our existing cameras?

The device receives images via ONVIF or RTSP. Quickium assesses compatibility, framing and the condition of existing cameras before deciding which can be reused and where new cameras are needed.

Does it need an internet connection all the time?

Detection can run on the device at your plant, with temporary local storage when the platform is unavailable. Remote alerts, record uploads and platform access require a connection. Local processing does not keep these remote services running without internet access.

Who receives alerts, and through which channels?

Registered recipients receive violation details and a link through WhatsApp and email. The link opens the photo in the platform. Channels are configured by camera in the platform's Alarmes (Alarms) tab.

What happens to images of people?

Each violation can include up to ten images, captured at 30-second intervals for up to five minutes, with role-based access. This is the capture window, not the storage period.

Which types of PPE are detected today?

Hard hats, high-visibility vests, gloves and earmuff hearing protection. Required PPE is configured for each monitored area. Presence detection does not certify the PPE's Brazilian Certificate of Approval (CA), validity or suitability. Other equipment requires a separate assessment.

What if a person faces away from the camera or is far away?

Position, distance and lighting need assessment in the scene. The installation assessment defines operating conditions; detection is not guaranteed in every situation.

How do we configure a restricted area?

Green and red zones are drawn for each camera in the platform. Configuration defines the restricted area and required PPE. Monitoring detects restricted area intrusion and generates alerts according to the configured rules.

Can it integrate with our work permit system?

SafeWatch receives work permits from your system via API, links cameras to active permits using configurable criteria and monitors required PPE. Violations can be associated with permits in the platform. Your system still issues the permits; integration is assessed as part of the project.

How many cameras can each device handle?

The number depends on device configuration and the monitoring scenario. The proposal defines sizing for the assessed cameras and areas, without assuming a universal camera count.

How do deployment and training work?

Deployment covers a camera assessment, device sizing, and area and PPE configuration. The SafeWatch Course is already available in the platform: nine modules with questions, progress tracking and a numbered certificate. Scope, responsibilities and training conditions are defined in the proposal.

How much does it cost?

Pricing on request. The proposal depends on the number of cameras, areas and plants, as well as deployment scope. Contact us through the form to assess your operation and receive a proposal.

How soon can I start seeing results?

Once cameras are on and monitoring is configured, detected violations start generating records. The deployment schedule is defined after assessing the environment. Available records do not prove accident reduction; results require monitoring of the operation.

11 / Video safety assessment

Assess what evidence your cameras could provide.

Talk to Quickium about the records your team needs to review. An assessment of cameras and available images guides the scope of a video safety assessment. Request the terms and image-use requirements for your operation. Pricing on request.
