Frequently asked questions

How does monitoring and emergency response work with your people protection services?

Our people protection solutions are connected to our 24/7/365 Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), where trained operators monitor alerts in real time.

If a worker signals an emergency or fails to check in, the ARC team can escalate the situation appropriately, including contacting designated personnel or local authorities, helping to ensure a fast and coordinated response.

Do your people protection devices and apps require training or setup?

Our lone worker devices and apps are designed to be easy to use and intuitive, and we provide appropriate training and support to ensure your teams know how to operate them effectively. This helps to maximise safety while minimising the time and effort needed to get your people protected.
