Worker protection anywhere with GPS/GSM alarm

The 'Responder' personal alarm system helps protect workers undertaking any potentially hazardous activity or working alone, anywhere and at any time, using the latest GPS/GSM technology

The 'Responder' personal alarm system introduced by SBES helps protect workers undertaking any potentially hazardous activity or working alone, anywhere and at any time, whether in an empty building area, at a remote location or even in transit.

The system automatically notifies an emergency response team of an incident, its identity and location within seconds.

Using the latest GPS/GSM technology and incorporating a comprehensive world-wide tracking system, the system is easy to use and requires virtually no maintenance.

A personal alarm unit is worn by the individual and is activated either manually or automatically should the person become incapacitated.

This sends a signal to a communications unit that is carried in a small lightweight bag.

Instantly, this communications unit contacts the system 24hr monitoring centre via the GSM network, detailing the user's exact location by use of the global positioning satellite (GPS) system.

Upon receiving an alarm the monitoring centre immediately commences response procedures as per the client agreed instructions.

Typically this will be to.

1) call the user to establish it is not a false alarm.

2) alert the appropriate emergency services directly.

This system can reduce staff costs by eliminating the need for a second worker in many working environments.

Its use also ensures a company's compliance with Health and Safety regulations by 'Showing a Duty of Care'.

An optional Personal Management Information (PMI) service is also available, enabling the tracking of personnel carrying Responder.

The monitoring centre is registered under BS5759, which regulates personnel security clearance, response times, event logging procedures and back-up facilities for such centres.
