Advanced push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) solutions designed to keep workers safer

As the number of mobile workers grows, ensuring employee safety has become a critical concern. Lone and remote workers face various risks, including violence and aggression in the workplace, and safety risks and medical emergencies in isolated or rural workplaces. 

Frontline workers, especially those operating in challenging or dangerous environments such as construction, transportation, security and emergency response, rely on dependable communication to keep them safe. 

Push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) delivers instant communication and mission-critical safety features to protect people in the field,  wherever they are in the world.

PoC safety features for lone and remote workers

Mobile Tornado’s range of world-class safety features is designed to enhance situational awareness and speed up emergency response to help keep your workforce safer.

Our lone worker keep alive and man down features make it possible to quickly and easily track and locate employees, enable employees to send alerts in the event of an emergency and allow employees to be periodically checked, in real time.

Feature

Enhance worker safety and reduce risks with automatic man down detection. Using sensors built into the device, falls, impacts and tilts can be instantly identified and alerts triggered to enable help to be sent quickly. 

Feature

Keep Alive

Improve lone-worker safety with automatic real-time check-ins. The Keep Alive feature periodically checks-in with your workers, in real time, to confirm their status and activity levels. If an employee fails to respond, an alarm is raised, enabling assistance to be sent.

Yes. Push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) improves worker safety by enabling instant, reliable, secure communication between individuals and groups. Features like emergency SOS alerts, lone worker monitoring, keep alive features and real-time GPS location tracking help you keep track of your workforce and enable you to respond quickly to incidents.

As soon as the employee pushes the emergency SOS button on the device, an alert is sent to the dispatch centre. The dispatch controller can establish an ambient listening session, which transmits all surround audio without the need to press PoC button. The dispatch controller can see the location of the employee in the emergency situation and locate users who are closest so that assistance can be sent.
