Lone workers can be at risk of injury or in a situation that prevents them from being able to call for help. Man Down Alert provides peace of mind and helps businesses meet their duty of care. When activated, the device will trigger a countdown of minutes up to an hour before sending an emergency alarm or calling for assistance. The feature’s settings can be customized to suit the work environment. Detection Lone workers like contractors, emergency response personnel, construction explosive experts, geologists and volcanic/seismic investigators can use the Man Down alert feature to ensure they get near-immediate assistance if they are incapacitated. When activated, the Man Down alert sends an emergency SMS and email to designated recipients if the device user stops moving. This can be sent to the user’s trusted contacts or, if they are using Safepoint’s 24/7 monitoring service, directly to their dedicated alarm receiving centre. The device’s internal sensor can also detect a soft fall, meaning the device is not in its upright position but still has enough tilt to activate the Man Down feature. If this occurs, the device will initiate a pre-alarm that lasts around ten seconds. The user can cancel the pre-alarm by pressing a central red help call button or bringing the device back to its vertical position. Whether the alert is triggered by a soft fall or the absence of movement, the monitor team will receive a Man Down alert and follow the employee’s escalation procedures to send help. If the device’s location services are enabled, the team can then respond quickly by sending help directly to the employee’s precise outdoor or indoor location. This can save crucial time in a life-threatening situation. A fast response can be the difference between a minor injury and something much more serious. Alarm While it might not be as obvious as a fall, a serious lack of movement can still indicate a lone worker is in trouble. Rather than sounding an alarm when it detects an incident, Man Down Alert is programmed to enter pre-alert mode where it will vibrate and beep to try and get the worker’s attention so they can cancel the alert or check in to say they are ok (avoiding false alarms). If this doesn’t work, the device may then go into its Man Down timer which is usually set between 3 minutes – 1 hour after which an emergency alert is sent. The system is also able to track the workers location and if the alarm hasn’t been cancelled, it will automatically call for help from the nearest rescue centre, ensuring that response times are as fast as possible. If the worker is not able to cancel the alert within the timeframe, they will be automatically connected with an Alarm Receiving Centre which is a purpose built central hub that receives and processes Man Down alarms. These are typically manned by trained security professionals and if the situation warrants it, they will be able to dispatch emergency services to the worker’s location. Mercari Technologies lone worker alarm This reduces the response time considerably and can mean the difference between life and death in some situations. Tilt Timer Man Down Alert (also known as a Fall Alarm, Movement Alarm or Movement Sensor) is a feature that can be added to your two way radio or BBPTT device that will monitor movement or a lack of it. If it is configured to send an alert when an accelerometer detects a change in position or a lack of tilt, it can provide vital help to lone workers who may be injured or incapacitated and cannot call for assistance themselves. The Man Down Alert can work with a number of different sensors, and can also be configured to prevent false alarms. For example, it can use the device’s option board accelerometer to detect a change in position or a lack-of-tilt. It can also use a sleep timer and pre-alarm configuration to reduce the likelihood of false alarms. Using a lone worker fall detection system helps businesses to meet their duty of care, and can ensure that they are not exposed to unnecessary risk. This can be especially important for lone workers who are at risk of falling or becoming immobile, such as those working in construction, explosives roles, exploration sites and volcanic/seismic environments. In addition, a person suffering from a medical condition, such as heart problems or epilepsy may be at a higher risk of injury or needing to call for help if they are unwell or have a sudden impact. Man Down Alert can be used alongside other lone worker safety features such as Location Services to make sure the correct help is sent quickly in these situations. Messages Lone workers often face situations where they need to call for help but they are not able to. A man down alarm system allows for the device to send out an alert when the user is unable to activate the emergency button manually. In many instances, a worker may have a heart attack or head injury and cannot move their arms to trigger the emergency button. The device will sense the lack of movement and then automatically start sending out an alarm to the designated people in your organisation. The alerts are sent via email or SMS if the radio is not on the network. The device can also be configured to send a message to the user’s trusted contacts and also Safepoint’s 24/7 emergency response team. When the alert is received, the emergency contacts can see the location of the lone worker and other useful information. The contact can then make contact to offer support and arrange assistance or medical help. In the UK, employers are legally obliged to provide workers with a means of raising an alarm in the event of an accident or incapacitation. Man Down is an important tool for achieving this, and it can help ensure that the most vulnerable workers are not left in dangerous situations for too long. Whether you need man down alarms as an addition to your lone worker device or want to integrate them into your existing platform, hermestrx can supply you with a fully compatible solution.
