Lone Worker Protection for Security Guards and Security Companies
Working as a Security guard is a particularly dangerous occupation. On average, security officers suffer injuries at more than twice the rate of the average worker. One way of improving the safety of security guards is to use a lone worker security system.
Lone working security guards require a solution that ensures they have round the clock safety monitoring, automated check-ins and precise GPS locations in case of emergencies.
Location Monitoring
Know where your security guards are at all times with our lone worker app and GPS. See all your worker locations in the cloud-based dashboard and view the location history for each shift.
Timed Check Ins
Our timed check-ins mean you know your guard is active and safe. If there is no reponse to a scheduled check-in notification, monitors can be alerted to investigate.
Shift Reminder Alerts
Make sure security guards start and end shifts on time. Reminders are sent to guards when their shift is due to start. Monitors will be alerted if the guard does not start a shift on time.
What Security Companies Say about Ok Alone
Very Useful Tool Employed by our Security Team
The Ok Alone app is a very useful tool employed by our security team.
It allows our officers to check-in on a regular basis, insuring their safety and allowing our supervisors to reduce physical checks, allowing them more time to fulfill other duties.
There has also been the added benefit during the Covid-19 pandemic; as the limited physical checks/ interaction required improves safety for all the officers on our team.
Sean Hamilton, LP Security
Perfect Solution for our Security Company
After looking at most of the options out there the OK Alone app was the perfect solution for our security company.
Simple to use with lots of useful features to create reports and quickly check how the officers are using the service.
This was by far the easiest to use and most cost effective of all the lone worker apps I looked at. We couldn’t be happier with the service.
Ben Beveridge, Black and White Key Security
