Innovative Heat Stroke Prevention by MAMORU Using WBGT Cloud Management

MAMORU Corporation's Commitment to Worker Safety

MAMORU Corporation, based in Setagaya, Tokyo, is a construction company dedicated to public infrastructure, focusing on protecting both communities and its employees under their motto, "Protect the city. Protect the people. Protect the ease of communication."

In anticipation of the extremely hot summer of 2026, MAMORU has fully implemented a real-time cloud-based management system for Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT), which serves as a crucial heat index tool for all construction sites. This innovative approach employs IoT technology to ensure that all workers' safety is prioritized.

Objective Safety Management Based on Concrete Data

MAMORU has installed IoT measuring devices at every worksite to monitor WBGT indicators, which are then shared on the cloud. This system allows office staff and site workers to have real-time access to critical data, facilitating objective decision-making about work conditions.

By adhering to established standards, MAMORU can effectively issue appropriate rest instructions and evaluate work tasks without relying solely on individual experience. This commitment to data-driven management enhances overall worker safety and efficiency, especially vital in the intense heat of summer.

Creating an Inclusive Environment with Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) Initiatives

At MAMORU, the company actively works towards an inclusive workplace environment where employees are not limited by their disabilities but instead can showcase their skills and expertise. A significant example is their hiring of visually impaired civil engineers, which represents the company's core belief, "Protect the people."

Recently, MAMORU's dedication to diversity has gained recognition in external media. A documentary titled 'What You See When You Cannot See: A Visually Impaired Civil Engineer’s Journey' will be released on June 12, 2026, on Fuji TV FOD. This film highlights the daily lives and professional commitment of visually impaired engineers at MAMORU and illustrates their involvement in local activities, including blind soccer, and interactions with communities like Setagaya City and the Tama Hassers.

Documentary Overview

The documentary aims to depict not just the professional aspects of visually impaired engineers at MAMORU but also their personal encounters and connections with local societies. By showcasing their hard work and contributions, MAMORU hopes to inspire and uplift the image of individuals with disabilities in the workforce, further supporting its motto of protecting the community and its employees.
