Operating in uncontrolled working environments can be inevitable, but compromising your employee’s safety is no longer an issue with a Loner SMD. Designed to raise the alarm in a variety of situations and environments ensures that lone workers are never truly alone.

1. Learn from the people
who learnt the hard way!
Last winter on a large open site, a maintenance
crew member was performing his standard
weekly safety checks in compliance with the
company’s health and safety policy. During his
check of perimeter fencing the crew member
slipped down an embankment and sprained
his ankle. With limited mobile phone signal he
couldn’t raise the alarm. Three hours later
his body was found by a colleague, still
at the bottom of the embankment.
He had died of hypothermia.
This customer of lone worker equipment learnt
the hard way about the risks of working alone,
even on-site – TAKE ACTION NOW!
Lone workers are anyone who operates by themselves or without close supervision.
Operating in uncontrolled working environments can be inevitable, but compromising your
employee’s safety is no longer an issue with a Loner SMD. Designed to raise the alarm in a variety
of situations and environments ensures that lone workers are never truly alone.
No longer should you rely on antique practices such as routine
check in phone calls to ensure your employee safety.
