A 2017 trend report from the global logistics company DHL found that augmented-reality headsets improved the productivity of warehouse pickers by up to 15%. The latest AR headsets, which look similar to conventional prescription eyewear, could extend productivity benefits across every aspect of logistics — and even beyond. But the AR headsets at the cutting edge of logistics and manufacturing are slimmer, lighter, and more durable than the Vision Pro or Quest. AR headsets used in a busy workplace need to keep the wearer's vision unobstructed.

☆ Climate change adds workplace costs and hazards

The 57-year-old's death in hospital was announced in late August - just as his trade union was ratifying a deal with UPS on improved heat protections. In a statement to local media, UPS (UPS.N) said it was cooperating with the authorities as they investigated the cause of death. "We train our people to recognize the symptoms of heat stress, and we respond immediately to any request for help," it said. Many European and other usually temperate countries still have no laws establishing maximum work temperatures. "Climate change is such a paradigm shift that all of us need to rethink these legacy economic assumptions," said NELP's Christman.

☆ Longevity is challenging people to reimagine their later years. One age cohort is 'carrying the most stress and burden,' research finds
  + stars: | 2023-08-24 | by ( Lorie Konish | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Increased longevity is challenging people to rethink the traditional three-step life path of education, work and retirement. But one age group — individuals ages 40 to 59 — is more likely to struggle with this concept, according to new research from Transamerica and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology AgeLab. "That cohort based on the study really had the toughest time and was carrying the most stress and burden about managing this concept of longevity in a positive way," said Phil Eckman, president of workplace solutions at Transamerica. Moreover, half of people in midlife are struggling to get by financially, more than other age groups studied. "One of the best ways to deal with stress is to look at that notion of health and well-being and sleep and diet and exercise and the way that can reduce stress," Eckman said.

  + stars: | 2023-02-22 | by ( Mike Scarcella | Industry Insight | Recommended Change Management Practices To Plan | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
U.S. District Judge Paul Diamond's order in Philadelphia federal court granted a request by Unisys to depose Leon Gilbert and Michael McGarvey, former leaders of Unisys' "digital workplace solutions" business unit. Representatives for France-based Atos and lawyers for Gilbert and McGarvey did not immediately respond to messages on Wednesday seeking comment. Unisys in a court filing said that "this case involves the theft of huge quantities of Unisys trade secrets," including technologies and business strategies for digital workplaces. Attorneys for Gilbert and McGarvey disputed the allegation and said "Unisys has not identified a single trade secret." The case is Unisys Corp v. Leon Gilbert and Michael McGarvey, U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

The good news is your list of potential references isn’t limited to relevant job history. So list them in order of your preferences.”Just remember agreeing to be a reference right now isn’t a blanket yes for all future job searches, noted Robinson.
