SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Oct. 25, 2022 – Longitude6 is bringing its wearable technology and risk management services to clients of Zurich Resilience Solutions (ZRS), a global provider of risk engineering, mitigation and resilience-building services that go beyond risk transfer. With this new, exclusive collaboration between the companies, non-invasive, wearable technology previously only available to large corporations with the resources to capitalize on these services will now be available to mid-size businesses. This technology is delivered directly to the door of mid-sized businesses at cost-effective prices.
Mark Heaysman, CEO and Founder of Longitude6 said, “Working with Zurich to develop a turnkey ergonomics service for the mid-market has been an amazing experience. The dedication and drive of Zurich’s leadership team during the development of our agreement shows how important creating new, effective service offerings is for Zurich’s mid-sized clients. I am so pleased we are part of this Zurich solution. Our teams in Australia and the U.S. are looking forward to supporting Zurich and its customers with this innovative ergonomic solution.”
ZRS will offer its mid-sized clients the opportunity to use wearable technology from Longitude6 using small sensors strategically placed on the body to quantify workplace musculoskeletal risk and develop implementable solutions to reduce these risks.
“I am thrilled to be able to deliver ergonomics services to mid-sized businesses that have had limited access to advanced technology and risk management services with Longitude6,” said Patrick Clarke, Head of Risk Engineering Services, Vendor Management and Marketing for Zurich Resilience Solutions in North America. “To offer a solution as innovative as delivering wearables to a mid-sized business’ front door is a new way to reduce workplace injuries for our clients of any size.”
Julie Bolton, Head of Middle Market, Risk Engineering for Zurich Resilience Solutions said, “Providing our clients with services to help them reduce injuries is a major focus of Zurich Resilience Solutions. We are excited to work with the team at Longitude6 to help our customers in the United States.”
