Alarm unit for those on their own
October 1st 2007

Many people interpret the term 'Lone worker' as someone working completely on their own.

However, it can also apply to those working alone in parts of a factory of warehouse, even though other parts of the premises are occupied. Should these workers have an accident, it may take a long time for help to arrive.

The new wireless Worker Sentry alarm system from First Stop Safety alerts key people around the premises as soon as the unit is triggered. This happens automatically when the body-worn device detects that the person has fallen.

As well as sounding a siren, it can alert a number of pagers to summon help from around the site.
