OnGuard Worker Safety
Capabilities of the Mobile App
The OnGuard app provides situational awareness and alerting capabilities for workers in the field turning the mobile phone into Digital PPE.

Any Android or iOS Device

Remote Configuration

Fall Detection
When you fall down, you want friends or co-workers to know about it; a man down alarm ensures no one will be left alone in the event of a work place incident. With our comprehensive fall alert system, we use sensors built into Android smartphones to detect that you have fallen, are motionless and may be injured.
Man Down Detection also works with smartphones and connected wearables like pendants and bracelets that have dedicated man down firmware and sensors to allow man down detection with iOS (Apple) devices.

Idle Detection

Panic Notification
When an emergency happens and you need help NOW, a panic alert instantly raises an alarm to the Web ERC Dispatcher, 24/7 3rd Party Monitoring, and everyone in your group. Our panic alarm system ensures that you get the help you need, when you need it!
You initiate a Panic Alert simply by pressing a dedicated red button on equipped smartphones or tapping a large Panic button icon on the screen of other smartphones. For added convenience, a wearable device can also be used to initiate a Panic Alert.

Life Check Mode
When your job takes you to an unusually dangerous place or situation, OnGuard has your back. We call these places Life Check Zones.
When a user enters into Life Check Mode, they are immediately added to a priority Watch List so dispatchers are more aware that a worker is performing a duty in, or travelling through, a hazardous area.
The worker is prompted to provide a “Proof of Life” on a regular interval that confirms all is well, and work will continue.

Auto Check-in Schedule
Most workers don’t want another task added to their duties but they understand the need to comply with safety regulations.
OnGuard makes compliance easy with automated check-ins on predefined, easy to manage schedules.
Using the scheduling feature allows you to set your work schedule and be confident that you will be protected during work hours and you can enjoy your privacy when you are not working.
Flexibility in scheduling allows different days on and off as well as setting your work hours for each day.
No buttons to push, no need to remember to check-in, and their location is automatically updated and sent to the Web ERC where emergency response personnel are on guard.

Manual Check-in

NFC Check-in
NFC Technology provides another method to check-in where GPS is unavailable.
With OnGuard NFC tags placed throughout a building workers simply tap the tag with their phone to check-in. This action provides precise location information with a simple action.

Geofencing
A geofence acts as an imaginary trip line around a specific location that generates various different actions within OnGuard.
Crossing in or out of a geofence can trigger state changes, check-ins, alerts, and will automatically notify users of hazards and compliance requirements associated with a particular location or area.

Indoor & Underground Location
Using OnGuard’s proprietary Bluetooth ALI (Assisted Location Instrumentation) technology, a building can be quickly and inexpensively instrumented to provide dynamic and accurate indoor locations, regardless of GPS availability.
Users are automatically located as they move between the ALI nodes, no buttons to push, no manual check-ins to complete.

Custom Map Overlays
To really bring your building to life, OnGuard can add a custom map overlay that will render your building layout over the map.
Adding the actual floor plan of your building allows you to visualize locations within the building using OnGuard ALI technology for Automatic Indoor & Underground Locations.

Mobile Hazard Alert
Industrial sites often have large, mobile, heavy equipment and operators have limited visibility.
OnGuard Mobile Hazard feature is like a geofence that surrounds and moves with the vehicle like a halo. When the halo line intersects with a worker or another vehicle, both parties are notified of approaching danger for accident avoidance and the device triggers a Danger Alert in the Web ERC.

Flexible Schedules
Using the scheduling feature allows you to set your work schedule and be confident that you will be protected during work hours, and you can enjoy your privacy when you are not working.
Flexibility in scheduling allows different days on and off as well as setting your work hours for each day.
