Schools & University Lone Worker

Disturbances and violent behaviour are becoming more and more common within our schools and universities. When violence breaks out, OnGuard can provide a clear understanding of where staff are located, the condition of their students, and if there is any immediate threat to them. With the push of a button, a panic alert can be sent that will pinpoint the location of the distress. With the use of a discrete, wearable panic button, nobody will even know that a call for help has been made. OnGuard can help create more awareness, provide instant notification in the event of a fall or idle detection and also identify the exact location of the injured worker, even indoors with no GPS!

With a robust set of features, designed to protect staff and students, the OnGuard Lone Worker system can really save lives. From Fall Detection, Mobile Hazard Alerting, Panic Button and Man Idle Detection, OnGuard can do it all. Lone worker safety monitoring includes OnGuard’s Hazardous Location Mode, which prompts the worker to check-in on a timed interval, creating a “Proof of Life” check-in that defines that the worker is OK and continuing to work. This feature can significantly improve overall safety and awareness.

Integrated Push to Talk communication, provides the worker further protection by having an instant link that turns the cellular device into a high-performance walkie talkie. When a panic or fall has been detected, a PTT emergency channel is automatically opened, and communication can be initiated to determine the condition of the worker.
