1. Lone worker devices provide employees with an efficient, discreet means of seeking assistance in high-risk situations. They can be activated manually via the Panic Alarm button or automatically with Man Down detection.
2.  
3. These devices send GPS alerts with links for emergency contacts to quickly view their locations on Google Maps. In addition, geofencing capabilities allow faster response times.
4. Man Down Detection
5.  
6. When working alone in high risk environments or remote locations, it can be hard to detect when an employee has been injured or fallen. With Man Down detection features on smartphones or wearable devices, workers can quickly summon assistance in case an emergency arises and ensure someone knows about what happened and will take necessary actions for their wellbeing.
7.  
8. Utilizing its built-in accelerometer, if there is no movement or an incident occurs which leads to a fall, the Man Down Alarm will activate and send an SMS and cyclical call alerting all nominated contacts of its activation. Furthermore, Mercari Technologies devices also feature automatic fall detection sensors which simultaneously detect sudden altitude changes and impacts to avoid false alarms.

10. Our lone worker device will prompt them to establish a two-way audio call with our Monitoring Center, allowing our operator to assess the severity of an incident and dispatch assistance if needed. This feature may prove particularly helpful for employees with chronic health conditions like heart conditions who might experience medical emergencies while working alone.

17. By simply pressing and holding the large SOS Panic button (which requires a SIM card for use - Supplied USA Only), users can trigger an emergency alarm, immediately sending SMS/Text notifications with Google Maps links of their current location to up to 10 emergency contacts of their choosing, dialing them one by one (optional), enabling voice-to-voice communications through this device's high-quality speaker/microphone, as well as initiating callback features (in case they get locked out or cannot find your number).
18.  
19. An emergency panic button is particularly useful for workers working on vehicles and other mobile locations as it eliminates the need to unlock a phone, open an app, or decide who they need to contact when faced with stress or danger. Furthermore, panic buttons monitor multiple critical alerts like man down (fall detection) or missed check-ins to ensure lone workers can quickly communicate their location and status in case of workplace accidents.
20. Geo Fencing
21.  
22. Geo Fencing is a mobile location-based service that enables users to create virtual boundaries around an area of interest using GPS tracking to trigger contextually aware actions. Geo Fencing technology has become widely utilized across industries for increasing operational efficiencies, driving marketing campaigns and enriching user experiences.

24. Real-Time Monitoring
25. Geofencing provides real-time monitoring for remote workers by alerting supervisors when devices enter or leave specific zones, leading to enhanced accountability and workforce planning.
26.  
27. As well as improving safety, this feature makes emergency responses simpler for dispatchers. When devices enter high-risk geofences, an instant alert goes out to dispatch and an SMS is sent with an escalation plan specific to that user's profile.
28.  
29. Mercari Technologies' Lone Worker Device comes equipped with the Man Down Alarm which enables lone workers to visit vulnerable people at their homes, such as community services professionals or those working in high-risk industries. A supervisor can configure it so that upon any fall detection it automatically alerts nominated contacts or 911.
30.  
31. lone worker app Retail brands can use geofences to automate check-in for mobile orders by using geofences to detect when devices enter a narrow virtual fence - as seen here at a mall food court. They're also powerful tools for customer engagement; companies such as Ticketmaster have used geofences extensively when offering incentives at concerts or sporting events.
32.  
33. GPS Tracking
34.  
35. GPS devices that track or locate remote employees allow supervisors to keep an eye on them from any location or position. Utilizing cutting-edge cellular network technology, lone worker alarms equipped with GPS can connect directly with emergency contacts via SMS/Text messaging or GPRS so supervisors have peace of mind that lone workers are safe.
36.  
37. Many lone worker panic buttons offer voice communication features to enable direct interaction with monitoring professionals upon activation, providing employees with the chance to more clearly explain their situation without straining to dial. Furthermore, depending on the device used some alarms may incorporate motion detection features that enable an alert by simply shaking vigorously - an invaluable solution for community service workers who visit vulnerable individuals at home.
38.  
39. Mercari Technologies' Lone Worker Alarms with Man Down detection can be easily set up by supervisors to detect users who stop moving for minutes to hours, notifying them immediately and notifying self-nominated emergency contacts that it has detected inactivity. Furthermore, these alarms can also be configured to activate automatically if it senses falls enabling workers to seek immediate help without manually activating an SOS call.
