Wearable Health Monitoring Devices and Technology’s Impact on Work-Life Balance for Women Seafarers
The use of wearable health monitoring technologies shows great promise in helping female sailors achieve a better work-life balance. Evaluating how successfully these technologies promote well-being and reduce the mental and physical stresses of marine vocations is the main goal. Our goal is to examine how real-time health monitoring might help reduce stress, improve sleep patterns, and promote a healthy lifestyle in the demanding world of sailing. To help women seafarers keep up their health and thrive despite the specific demands of their job, we’re looking at how wearable tech might improve work-life balance. To better meet the requirements of women in the marine sector, investigating the association between technology adoption and enhanced quality of life is essential. By doing so, it is possible to develop targeted support measures for them. Wearable health monitoring impact data for five different device IDs shows a wide range of values for the following: heart rate (bpm): 67-98, steps (504711666), step hours (4.87-8.17), calories burned (1687-2680), and work-life balance score (1.57-6.61). For five separate device IDs, the corresponding physical activity impact data shows step counts ranging from 5647 to 13456, active minutes from 90 to 180, calories burnt from 1750 to 3000, sleep quality from 6.5 to 9.1, and work-life balance scores from 3.2 to 7.9.
