Get Immediate Help

Give your people the peace of mind that help is at hand. A lone worker can activate the alarm to initiate a two-way voice call with either our alarm monitoring staff or your designated responders.

Responders have additional contextual information automatically sent to them, such as a live map of the worker’s location, relevant personal and organisation information, and preset escalation procedures for handling alarm calls.

Timed Check-Ins

Set a timed check-in so you know your staff are safe and well. When the check-in period expires, the user will receive a notification asking them to confirm they are okay. An automatic alarm will be raised if they fail to respond.

Add context with voice and note updates

Lone workers can add voice or written updates about what they are doing, where they are going, who they are visiting, and so on. This contextual information is logged on the user’s timeline within Protector.

If the alarm is activated, either proactively or via a missed check-in, the responder can access the updates to gain better insights into what may have happened and aid in a timely, positive response.

Who is the lone worker app for?

Organisations who provide mobile phones or have a bring-your-own-device policy may favour using an app rather than a device. It is also beneficial for lone workers who need to regularly check-in or add safety updates to their profile.

The app makes the user experience seamless because it utilises the mobile phone that users are already familiar with.

All Features

Timed Alert

You are able to set a safety timer for the period of time you are carrying out an activity. If you do not close down the alarm before this period ends, then the app will automatically start the alarm activation procedure.

Easy Onboarding

Even if you have hundreds or thousands of end-users, the visual interface makes it simple and intuitive to get your employees set up and using the service within minutes.

Licence Management

The platform provides the flexibility to re-assign app user licences. This means you can easily reassign licences as your needs evolve and people come and go to maximise your ROI.

iOS & Android

The app is available on iPhone and Android devices, giving you the flexibility to use it on a wide range of mobile devices.

Check-in

Schedule a check-in so that you are prompted to notify us that you are okay. Should you miss a check-in, the system will automatically activate the alarm and follow the escalation procedure pre-set by your organisation.

Voice Messaging

Leave a recorded voice message which the alarm monitoring operators can listen to should your alarm be activated or the timer has elapsed. It’s great for adding context should the alarm be activated.

Key Location Updates

Along with our short-interval tracking, the App logs a new location whenever an alert is raised, ensuring our Alarm Operators have the most recent location when required

MDM Compatible

The app is designed to work with your organisation’s Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution, which streamlines managing deployment.
