When are you looking for a single work system?

A lone work system is used in an environment where someone works alone. It could be an employee who works alone in the evening or someone who regularly has to be in a cold store to pick up products. If you think about it, you will be able to think of many situations where someone is alone for a while. A lone work system ensures that help can be called in quickly if someone has fallen or becomes unwell.

How does a single work system work?

A stand-alone system can consist of a small emergency button, but can also be supplied in the form of a walkie-talkie. Depending on the network coverage and the type of environment, you can choose a type of button. In a meadow or office environment, an emergency button based on the GSM network is fine, but there is no GSM coverage in a freezer or cold store. In these types of environments we will use traditional systems such as walkie-talkies or paging. A small local system will be installed that transfers the notification to the outside of the cold store. From that place we can, for example, warn a colleague via mobile phone.

After pressing the emergency button, the following actions are explained based on the created scenarios:

  • Call
  • SMS
  • Email
  • Emergency center
  • Colleagues in the neighborhood

What should you pay attention to with a single work system?

When choosing a work-only system, it is important whether there is GSM coverage at the user's place. Based on this information, you can choose a local system or an emergency button based on GSM. You can also think hard about the people who should be alerted. Based on these answers, we can give you specific advice.
