Enhanced Session Notes Functionality

January 21, 2019/0 Comments/in Lone Worker /by Stephen Robb

This article provides a brief guide on the different options for notes on check-in and session extend.

StaySafe has recently been updated with the ability to allow or enforce the entry of notes not only at the start of a user’s session but also during a session.

The ability to add additional notes during a session has been developed for situations where a lone worker needs to leave useful information throughout the day. For example, those working on different jobs or sites during a session, those about to enter an area of low signal, or to record any identified hazards while working.

StaySafe available on new Garmin inReach mini devices

August 1, 2018/0 Comments/in Lone Worker /by Stephen Robb

Garmin inReach mini offers a smaller, lighter satellite communication device with 100% global coverage through Iridium’s satellite network.

The new mini device offers much of the same functionality as the larger Garmin inReach, and provides all of the core functionality of the StaySafe app. It will even allow a lone worker to trigger a panic alarm from a connected Garmin watch, and to exchange messages with a monitor using their watch too.

Accurate location tracking allows remote workers to be monitored from the StaySafe Hub, while an SOS panic allows them to signal for help in an emergency. If a panic alert is triggered on the device, StaySafe will notify a monitor immediately, allowing an organisation to take action.

StaySafe BS8484 Update

November 29, 2015/0 Comments/in Lone Worker /by Stephen Robb

The upcoming changes to health and safety legislation in New Zealand are certainly increasing awareness of smartphone-based solutions within the market. As a result, we are seeing significant interest in StaySafe.

The StaySafe solution which we represent in New Zealand has now been successfully audited and accredited under British Standard BS8484:2011 “The Provision of Lone Worker Device Services”.

This is a significant achievement for StaySafe, only achieved after long preparation and rigorous assessment to ensure that the standard’s stringent requirements were met. To the best of our knowledge, StaySafe is the only BS8484 compliant smartphone lone worker device available and supported locally in New Zealand.

At Secure Mobility we are very excited about what this means for the StaySafe solution, and its entry to the New Zealand market.
