Why GPS technology Isn’t Enough | Lone Worker Safety

Where are your people?

You may think that your GPS system is keeping track of where everyone is as they go about their work, but GPS has definite shortcomings.  It may be able to tell you where your worker is, but it won’t tell you how they are.

Tags gps technology, lone worker safety, working alone

Ok Alone automatically reminds staff when they miss a check-in, it sends you their GPS location and it enables your workers to tell Ok Alone they are going into a high risk situation. If you want 24/7 live montoring, it does that too, and much, much more.
