How lone worker devices protect employees
For businesses that have employees working alone, ensuring their safety is a top priority. Securitas Ireland provides personal panic button alarms for lone workers, available for immediate use. Monitored 24/7 by our Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), these alarms offer a fast and efficient response to any emergency. In the event of an alert, our operators will identify the worker’s location, make contact, and liaise with emergency services if required.
Our lone worker safety monitoring devices are easy to use, waterproof, and shock-resistant, equipped with GPS tracking to provide various levels of protection depending on workplace risks. Below, you'll find details on the features and benefits of our solutions.
Putting employee wellbeing first
Demonstrate a genuine commitment to the well-being of your employees by providing the tools and support they need to stay safe. By prioritising their health and safety, you reflect a deep respect for their lives and foster a culture of care, trust, and confidence.
This approach strengthens morale, builds loyalty, and shows your workforce that their safety is your top priority.
Protect your business and your people
Ensure your company meets all employee health and safety regulations and adheres to legal and industry standards. By proactively reducing the risk of accidents and incidents, you safeguard your business from costly litigation, penalties, and reputational damage.
Compliance is not just about following the law - it’s about creating a secure and responsible workplace.
Safer, smarter, more productive
Investing in employee safety delivers real economic advantages. By reducing workplace accidents, you lower medical costs, insurance premiums, and compensation claims, while preventing incidents proves far more economical than addressing their aftermath. At the same time, a safer workforce works more efficiently, minimising downtime, enhancing productivity, and boosting overall business performance.
Prioritising safety also strengthens your reputation, attracts top talent, and earns customer trust, giving your company a competitive edge.
