A hazardous location is an area with an elevated risk associated. It is the employer’s duty to ensure that workers entering a high-risk area are informed about the nature of the hazard and required safety standards. OnGuard provides you the geofence capability for automatic Life-Check Zones to trigger events upon a worker entering a hazardous location. The worker can be:
- Alerted about the workplace hazard and accident prevention measures.
- Reminded to carry appropriate PPE such as protective gear, special sensors, etc.
- Enrolled into a check-in interval requiring proof of life at specific intervals.
- Moved up on a supervisor or dispatcher watch list for close supervision.
