Monitoring the safety and security of workers in potentially dangerous work environments is critical for some organizations. A worker beginning a hazardous work assignment (e.g. security patrol, rescue team member, psychiatric ward attendant, etc.) registers with a personal security application or a supervisor activates monitoring for a selected staff member. Calls are dialed to the worker at regular, specified intervals (e.g. every 30 minutes.) At the monitoring team’s discretion, the worker may be asked to:
simply answer the call and disconnect after listening to a short announcement
answer the call and acknowledge with a key press
answer the call and provide a current status/location update
If a monitored worker fails to answer the call, an alert is automatically sent to specified personnel.
