Man Down Alarm Devices
Man Down devices are a specific safety technology that is specifically designed for workers that work alone, in isolated situations or in environments with a communication system that may be difficult to use. These devices are able to detect and monitor the posture of the worker, generating various types of alarms in correspondence with events such as prolonged non-movement or maintenance of the lying position.
These devices also have a panic alarm button which can be pressed in case of need, thus providing the user with peace of mind. https://www.loneworkeralarms.co.nz/gps-location-finding/ They are also useful for reducing the time gap between trouble recurrence and rescue, thanks to their ability to send SOS calls to emergency centres in real-time.
Fall Detection
Falls from height remain the leading cause of workplace fatalities and injuries in Great Britain. As such, it is important for employers to minimise the risk of falls for their employees and ensure that they are protected in case of a fall or other incident.
This is achieved through the use of a Man Down solution which includes a fall detector that will automatically alert someone when a lone worker has fallen. This could be a colleague or member of the public who will then be able to call for help and assistance, as well as to check on the lone worker’s wellbeing.

The lone worker can also be monitored via their smartphone app, with the option to set up a no-motion alert which will notify their emergency contacts if there has been no movement in a set time period (time set by the user). This can be used for people who have moved into a new environment such as client homes, construction zones or when travelling between meetings. https://www.loneworkeralarms.co.nz/
