description The electric power industry poses significant risks to workers with a wide range of hazards such as electrocution, electric shock, burns, and falls. Regardless of the types and characteristics of these hazards, electric power companies should protect their workers and provide a safe and healthy working environment, but it is difficult to identify the potential health and safety risks present in their workplace and take appropriate action to keep their workers free from harm. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel safety autonomous platform (SAP) for data-driven risk management in the electric power industry. It can automatically and precisely provide a safe and healthy working environment with the cooperation of safety mobility gateways (SMGs) according to the safety rule and risk index data created by the risk level of a current task, a worker profile, and the output of an on-site artificial intelligence (AI) engine in the SMGs. We practically implemented the proposed SAP architecture using the Hadoop ecosystem and verified its feasibility through a performance evaluation of the on-site AI engine and real-time operation of risk assessment and alarm notification for data-driven risk management.
