Protecting Remote Area Service Delivery Crews
Challenge
Remote or rural area service delivery workers such as the incredible people who manage remote parklands, tracks, facilities and conservation don’t always work alone but with the remote nature of their work, they are regularly faced with limited cellular coverage.
These government employees often brave hazardous terrain, adverse weather, antisocial people and dangerous wildlife to ensure these areas are well-maintained and safe. If an emergency does occur they are often quite far from emergency responders so it is critical that in an emergency a notification is sent immediately with their exact location.
Risks
- Isolation and Communication Barriers
Workers in remote locations may be hours away from help if they encounter an emergency.
- Communication Barriers
Lack of cell service in remote parklands or rural areas hinders the ability to call for help or check in with other team members.
- Environmental Hazards
Exposure to unpredictable weather, challenging terrain, machinery and wildlife poses significant safety risks.
- Heath Emergencies
Medical issues can become critical without immediate access to emergency services.
Solution
Guardian Angel Safety provides comprehensive solutions to protect remote area service delivery workers, ensuring safety even without cellular coverage.
Implementing the Guardian Angel Safety solution significantly enhances the safety and communication capabilities of remote area service delivery workers such as council maintenance crews in remote parklands. Councils can monitor the well-being of their workers in real-time and know in an emergency, responders can find the individual’s exact location and respond promptly. This proactive approach not only safeguards the crew but also fosters a culture of safety within the council, ensuring that public lands are maintained efficiently and safely for the enjoyment of the community.
Our devices offer a range of features that collectively enhance the safety and security of your remote maintenance team:
- Devices with GPS location tracking, ensuring crew members’ locations are known, even without cellular coverage.
- Emergency SOS button provides immediate alerts for rapid response, while two-way communication and scheduled checks enable direct contact with council safety officers or emergency services, along with monitored welfare checks.
- No movement fall detection feature automatically sends alerts if a worker falls and remains motionless, allowing for a swift emergency response.
- Weather alerts keep workers informed of incoming adverse conditions, and the ability to capture geotagged images helps document incidents or damage.
- Two-way Communication enables direct communication with council safety officers or emergency services, providing situational details and receiving guidance even in areas of limited cell service.
