EZITRACKER ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP
WITH UTS FLEET Workforce management solutions provider Ezitracker (part of the HAS Technology Group) has formed a strategic partnership with UTS Fleet, a camera, software and tracking specialist for business fleets. The move is set to deliver end-to-end visibility of remote workforces, whilst they work and travelling between jobs.
Ezitracker time and attendance technology enables employers of large and small workforces, including fleet management companies, to reduce absenteeism, lower costs via automation, and increase productivity and efficiencies.
Rob Turner, Managing Director at UTS Fleet, commented: “We are delighted
TORK OFFERS VIRTUAL REALITY HAND HYGIENE
TRAINING Tork has unveiled a virtual reality training simulation aimed at improving hand hygiene in healthcare.
Manufacturer Essity collaborated with behavioral scientists, university hospitals and global hand hygiene experts in developing this ground- breaking tool.
Tork VR Clean Hands Training and Education uses virtual reality to provide healthcare staff with realistic scenarios where hand hygiene needs to be carried out. And Essity believes itself to be one of the first companies ever to use VR in a hand hygiene training simulation.
“Tork VR Clean Hands is designed to make hand hygiene training more engaging and inspiring,” said Essity Sales Manager Liam Mynes. “Participants put on their VR headset and prepare to start a new shift at their healthcare workplace.
“They then face a series of real-life situations in the virtual world where they are expected to practice hand hygiene compliance - using their own hands.

to team up with Ezitracker and provide them with a powerful vehicle tracking solution that fits neatly into their portfolio of workforce management solutions. The partnership will allow Ezitracker to easily integrate our framework and provide total control and monitoring capabilities of their customer’s fleets.”
Christian Berenger, Managing Director at Ezitracker said: “We have been approached by our customers to develop a telematics solution, one that can provide a full picture of their workforces activities both onsite and travelling between sites. Rather
than reinvent something that already exists within the market, we took the decision to find a reputable ‘best of breed’ partner to deliver this solution, one that would mirror Ezitracker’s unrivalled customer service. UTS fleet ticked all those boxes and we look forward to delivering a great partnership programme with them.”

and will soon learn to adopt excellent hand hygiene standards both in the virtual and in the real world.”
The participating healthcare worker takes on the role of a nurse or physician in a hospital unit where they are tasked with caring for several patients. Their results are assessed on how far they comply with the World Health Organisation’s (WHOs) “5 Moments for Hand Hygiene”.
Professor Didier Pittet, Director, Infection Prevention and Control Program at the University of Geneva Hospitals and Faculty of Medicine
Geneva, said: “The exciting thing about this innovative training in virtual reality is that it allows professionals to test their knowledge in a safe simulation of a patient environment and to receive direct feedback - and to learn from mistakes.”
Tork VR Clean Hands Training and Education is free to download via App Store and Google Play and participants need a compatible smartphone and VR headset with remote control or equivalent.
