Worker Safety Monitoring Regardless of Your Industry

Agriculture

Agriculture is a major industry in North America that employs nearly 3 million people. These workers not only face a range of both man-made and natural safety hazards, but they also work alone and remotely. A worker could injure themselves in the field in one day while dealing with environmental hazards and several other significant safety risks. SafetyLine provides several safety features and tools that protect these people, including fall detection, panic buttons, and proactive check-in timers, which can be customized depending on the safety risks and hazards.

Energy

Millions of workers in the energy sector are involved with producing and selling oil, natural gas, coal, and renewable fuels, as well as electricity from clean energy sources, such as wind, solar, hydropower, geothermal, and nuclear power. These workers also face a range of dangerous safety hazards, where workers face deadly amounts of electricity, radiation, heat, toxic gases, and dangerous heights and equipment. To mitigate such a diverse list of safety hazards, SafetyLine’s comprehensive suite of safety features can protect those in your sectors, such as our customizable check-in system and precise location tracking.

Government Services

Government workers encompass several different positions that range from engineers to sanitation workers. Most of these people work in a public setting where they are at risk of violence and assault. Employees working alone or in isolation make it less likely for help to be around if needed. To receive confirmation of their safety, managers require employees to manually check in when their shift starts and check out when it ends, confirming they are safe and well. SafetyLine’s cloud-based, automated check-in system eliminates the risk of human error while providing peace of mind that vulnerable workers are being monitored and engaged.

Healthcare

Healthcare workers have important but stressful jobs, providing essential care for ourselves and our loved ones. This stress exists in the busier hospitals and ERs as well as in the community and patient homes, where they often work alone and without any immediate help should they need it in a violent, dangerous situation. Due to serious occupational safety hazards, health authorities must look at areas that can be automated so that healthcare professionals can focus on providing quality care to those who need it. safety line will keep a close eye on those going into patient homes, requiring them to check in before and check out afterward, confirming their safety.

Hotels and Hospitality

Hotel and hospitality workers also face constant threats of violence from guests and other members of the public. While no federal safety legislation in the US and Canada has been passed to protect these workers, several American States and local municipalities have placed legislation and ordinances to protect hotel workers, which requires employers to provide mandatory panic buttons for hotel housekeepers. SafetyLine can provide a reliable and accessible panic button that does not require the purchase of new devices that the employees must carry with them. SafetyLine maintains a constant line between the worker and the employer, who can access their precise location in an emergency.

Laboratories and Manufacturing

Laboratory workers are researching new therapies and medicines to treat the illnesses and ailments in our communities. It is generally advised that lab workers do not work alone. However, it still does take place. While they appear to be safe, clean spaces, laboratories can also present the dangers of unseen biological hazards such as toxic chemicals, gases, fumes, fires, and electrical shock. As structured as they are, severe injury can still occur in a lab setting, especially when the worker is alone. SafetyLine can effectively monitor the safety of these people using only a smartphone or tablet and the easy-to-use lone worker app.

Comparably, workers in the manufacturing industry can also benefit from SafetyLine. Manufacturing encompasses a range of areas, including automotive, textiles and printing, pulp and paper, wood, metal fabrication, and more. Like lab workers, they are at risk of exposure to dangerous chemicals and gases, as well as hazardous machinery and equipment.

Non-profit Organizations 

Healthy and thriving communities need the work of non-profit organizations (NPOs) to provide important services and benefits to their citizens, especially those who need it most. There are almost 2 million NPOs across the United States and Canada, employing millions more through different causes and public service. Despite performing important work, few protections are in place to protect these people who often work with the public and the safety hazards that come with it, such as violence. On ubiquitous devices like smartphones, SafetyLine’s suite of safety tools and features can be easily and quickly deployed to protect employees performing various jobs.

Utilities 

Depending on the sector or department, utility workers may work in dangerous, confined spaces or 40 feet up on an electrical pole working with and around fatal levels of electricity - up to 100,000 volts. Like those in the energy sector, utility workers may have to work in remote locations, which has additional safety hazards and potential complications. SafetyLine can provide easily adjustable safety confirmation timers and an accessible panic button to request help in an emergency immediately. If a worker falls and injures themselves, SafetyLine’s fall detection will immediately request help when the employee cannot.

Wildlife, conservation, and environmental services

Wildlife, conservation, and environmental services employees include a wide range of jobs, including marine biologists, park rangers, and gardeners – all with the common goal of lessening the human impact on the environment while working and living in these beautiful areas. To protect these areas, these workers must face volatile weather, aggressive wildlife, as well as violent members of the public. To protect these people, SafetyLine provides a dependable line of communication between the employee and their employer so that help can be sent to the precise location in an emergency – no matter what remote location they might be working in.
