Automate emergency checks on high-risk workers
Automatically trigger an emergency alarm for workers who start a high-risk activity and don’t respond when their activity should end.
Workers can set a Timed Activity to ensure they are monitored during high-risk tasks. If they don’t check in when the activity ends, alerts are sent to monitors or our Safety Monitoring Center for immediate action.
How it works
Set a Timer
Workers enter the details of their high-risk task such as the location, client or potential dangers and set a timer by choosing either:
- How long the task will take
- When the task should be finished.
During the worker’s Timed Activity, their monitor can see on the online dashboard that the worker has set a timed activity and all the relevant information.
Staying Alert and Flexible
As the timer counts down, the system sends reminder to the worker when it’s time to check in, and once finished, confirm their safety. If the task takes longer than expected, workers can easily extend the timer.
Respond Quickly to Missed Check-ins
If the worker doesn’t check in on time, the system alerts their monitor or our 24/7 Safety Monitoring Center, who can quickly follow up to ensure the worker’s safety.
Benefits
- Enhanced Safety: Timed check-ins ensure that workers stay on task and confirm their safety, reducing the risk of unreported incidents.
- Faster Emergency Response: If a worker fails to check in, the system automatically alerts the monitor, allowing for quick action to prevent or respond to potential issues.
- Improved communication: The monitor can view the worker’s task details (such as location or duration), helping them respond effectively if something goes wrong.
- Adaptable Timing: Timers can be easily adjusted to suit the worker’s task, providing flexibility as needed.
- Peace of Mind: Provides peace of mind for workers and employers, knowing help is readily available if needed.
Who Could Use Timed Activity
High-risk Workers
Individuals working alone or in potentially high-risk roles can use Timed Activity to ensure safety and quick response in case of emergencies.
Remote Enviroments
Challenging or remote work environments benefit from regular check-ins to ensure safety in isolated or hazardous conditions.
