Organisations responsible for lone workers need a solution that integrates seamlessly into their existing services and digital systems, that’s intuitive and easy to use. On top of this, most want technology to be compatible with existing mobile devices – an effective lone worker monitoring system should not require you to purchase an array of new, expensive devices.

How Our Lone Worker Solution Works
The Shield Lone Worker monitoring system’s primary function is to allow team members out in the field to schedule check-in calls at any time they deem necessary. Failure to answer one of these calls, or the activation of the app’s alarm, results in alerts being sent out to a pre-arranged contact tree. The optional GPS tracking feature allows managers to immediately locate an employee should such an alert be sent out.
At the other end of the system, supervisors have access to an administration portal that provides them with real time information about the status of their lone workers. This can be accessed 24/7/365 and allows supervisors to listen to voice recordings, monitor employee usage of the check-in call function, and schedule training. Together the two operate as an effective means of improving lone worker safety, meeting legal obligations, and providing peace of mind.

What our clients say
“The Shield system has been helping us to support staff who work off-site and who may find themselves in situations that make them unexpectedly vulnerable. The system is simple to use, available for users to access on a 24/7 basis and fits in seamlessly with all our existing staff safety systems.”
“We implemented the Shield (formerly Crisys) lone worker safety monitoring system after a successful trial period, because it responded to our needs for an effective and easy-to- use system that would be under our control and that would allow us to use our existing equipment. Our ability to see real time information at any time about user activity, to make user updates and generally manage our teams, when needed, via the password protected online Shield portal, have also been particularly helpful aspects of this service.”
“My team includes front line staff who often who work alone in very rural/wild areas of countryside, and can be in vulnerable situations. We needed a lone worker support solution that was accessible at week-ends and night-time as well as during office hours. Shield works for us as it is stand-alone, straightforward to use and flexible in respect of changing staff – it does of course require a phone signal and that’s something to check in rural areas. This system is effective, affordable and backs up our health and safety policies.”
