Above the Line Security have improved the safety of their at-risk employees by switching from a manual call-in system to the user-friendly StaySafe lone worker solution. Employees at Above the Line Security are responsible for guarding individuals and high-value equipment on busy film sites. Ensuring Employee Safety StaySafe allows workers on site to send an alert in an emergency while providing the employee with an accurate location via a real-time map Prone to theft and coming into contact with potentially volatile paparazzi and members of the public, the company required a more reliable way of monitoring the safety of their guards. StaySafe allows workers on site to send an alert in an emergency while providing the employee with an accurate location via a real-time map. Monitors are alerted if an employee triggers an alert or fails to check-in on the app during their shift. StaySafe StaySafe also provides the ability for an alert to be raised even during difficult situations. If engaged in a confrontation, a panic can be sent discreetly, or a duress PIN entered if the app is discovered by the aggressor. Missed check-in alerts will also alert a monitor in cases where the lone worker may be unable to send a panic themselves. “Having used an app for the first time to protect our lone workers, we were incredibly impressed by the ease and agility of set up and usability. Our employees have adapted quickly to using the app whenever they work and as they do not always come to the office, it allows them to set up for the day quickly and independently.” Lone Workers’ Safety Security Personnel are often targets for verbal and physical abuse due to the nature of the work they carry out" Adele O’ Toole at Above the Line, continues; “Previously, we had to rely on night supervisors based in external locations to take check-in and emergency calls manually. This proved expensive and disconnected, particularly if our lone workers were situated in areas of low signal where making contact to ensure their safety was infrequent and unreliable. With StaySafe, we are able to instantly locate our workers on a map once they have checked-in, even in areas of low signal, saving us a lot of time and human resources.” Don Cameron, CEO at StaySafe adds; “Security Personnel are often targets for verbal and physical abuse due to the nature of the work they carry out. They often protect valuable assets which leads to the potential risk of theft and aggression. StaySafe provides peace of mind for the lone workers and the business by providing an effective and reliable solution for a range of volatile situations. Organizations can see exactly where their staff are in the case of an emergency and can send assistance directly to them – all with the added bonus of being user-friendly and cost-effective, only requiring a mobile phone.”

Safety app specialists StaySafe launches IncidentEye, an app that allows companies to quickly locate and monitor the safety of their staff in the event of a terror attack or other emergency. IncidentEye, which is compatible with both android and iOS devices, is a smartphone app and cloud-based hub which allows an employer to rapidly locate and protect employees during an emergency. The solution has been developed in response to the growing number of incidents, both man made and natural, that are affecting businesses around the world. These events are unpredictable and can cause considerable panic and disruption, both to staff and business operations" Effective Way To Instantly Respond “Recent years have seen a rise in terror attacks and active shooter incidents, whilst climate change experts predict that warmer temperatures and high tides will continue to increase the number of natural disasters occurring” comments Don Cameron, CEO, StaySafe. “These events are unpredictable and can cause considerable panic and disruption, both to staff and business operations. IncidentEye provides organizations with an effective way to instantly respond in the event of an emergency and monitor the wellbeing of their staff.  The app provides real time information to instantly ascertain where employees are located, ringfence those in the area and communicate with them until everyone is accounted for, with minimal disruption to the rest of the workforce”. Sharing Safety Information The app, which lies dormant on staff phones until an incident is triggered by their employer, uses location data to establish if any employees are in the danger zone and prompt them to check in safely. The app can then be used to communicate with affected staff, sharing up to date safety information and warning any near-by employees to avoid the area until the incident is resolved. Status information and communications are also tracked throughout and are saved as a report and audit trail. We are therefore very pleased to have adopted IncidentEye as our emergency communication service" Owen Loeffellechner, Chief Safety & Security Officer at Bank of New Zealand is one of the first clients to go live with the new app.  “The safety and well-being of our people is paramount and so we are continuously looking at ways we can exercise our duty of care better” states Loeffellechner. Active Mobile Workforce “As a business we have a large national footprint consisting of many locations, including an active mobile workforce. The combination of these elements, industry related risks and a country that can be subjected to earthquakes means emergency communication is essential.” “We are therefore very pleased to have adopted IncidentEye as our emergency communication service. We believe in times of an emergency this will contribute significantly to our capability to confirm the welfare status of our people and provide a timely response, or to proactively communicate about serious threats.”

We have just issued all employees with new smartphones so a lone worker solution that would work on their smartphones without the need for any additional technology really appealed. The app has been easy to set up and use and monitoring the app requires minimal resource, which is great”.

App tracks employee’s location via GPS & alerts their manager if they do not check-in within specified time Independent IT, telecommunications and electrical service provider i-Systems has rolled out innovative lone worker security app, StaySafe Business. The app, which tracks an employee’s location via GPS and alerts their manager if they do not check-in safely within a specified time, will be used to ensure that i-Systems engineers are safe when working alone. Prior to signing with StaySafe, i-Systems were manually administrating a system where engineers would text or call their employer when they arrived safely on site. However, in order to better meet their duty of care and to adhere to lone worker safety legislation i-Systems felt they needed a solution that was more robust. After a review of the lone worker safety market they selected StaySafe. Keep Track Of Employees During Emergencies The StaySafe app enables i-Systems to keep track of their employees in case of emergencies using the StaySafe online Hub. The Hub accurately locates workers on a map and provides real-time updates on their location.

Not all our jobs require lone worker safety measures so the app is perfect for us as employees can easily switch it on and off depending on the work they are doing. StaySafe appealed to us because it has a very comprehensive range of features whilst still being easy to use. Employee feedback has been very positive as our engineers feel we are taking their safety seriously and are reassured that we could quickly respond in an emergency. We are now looking at rolling out the app to other areas of the business”. Don Cameron, CEO, StaySafe adds “The StaySafe Business app is a great solution for organizations like i-Systems who work on a project basis, who only need a lone worker solution for certain jobs. The app is always there on the employee’s smartphone ready to use when needed, but won’t take up any of their time checking in and out on days when they are in the office or part of a bigger team. Alternatively, if an employee will be doing a very high-risk job, the app can be set to prompt them to confirm they are safe at regular intervals – perhaps as frequently as every 10-15 minutes. This flexibility of use makes StaySafe Business the ideal solution to keep employees safe whatever their working pattern”.

Employees visit several locations a day so to know when they are checking in and out and to be able to track their location in the hub enables us to know that they are safe at all times, even when traveling between locations. We’ve tried other devices in the past but none have had the range of features, accuracy and ease of use that StaySafe has”. Don Cameron, CEO, StaySafe Business comments “Employees in the housing and property sectors can be extremely vulnerable as they are required to visit building sites and empty properties, carry out maintenance work and meet with buyers and tenants, often by themselves.

The app has so many safety features and the tracking is extremely accurate. The fact that the solution works on smartphones and the Hub is cloud based is great for us as we are rarely at our desks. People remember their phones, so the app is always available to them, and as a manager I can log in to the Hub from wherever I am to check everyone is safe. Although the app is a fixed product, the communication and service we received from StaySafe was still personal to us and our business. They are our lone working partner, not just an app provider”. Don Cameron CEO StaySafe comments “The property industry is one of the first professions many people think of when considering lone worker safety; sadly because of some of the high profile attacks that have happened to those working alone in property industry.
