SOS & Lone Working Protection

Teaching and support staff may often find themselves working in isolated areas, supervising after-school clubs, locking up the premises, or tending to pupils with additional needs — sometimes without immediate support.

Our discreet, lone worker devices offer:

  • SOS alerts to a monitoring centre or colleague at the press of a button
  • GPS or indoor location to locate the staff member quickly
  • Man-down detection which will identify a fall or unattended medical emergency
  • Two way comms without the need for a phone

A vital safeguard for site staff, caretakers, SENCOs and pastoral teams.
