Enhance employee safety with Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS)

Indoor positioning systems (IPS) are a powerful tool for improving employee safety in various workplaces.

Emergency alert in unsafe work conditions

Real-time location data can help identify the exact location of employees who may encounter dangerous situations, e.g. violent clients, so help can be sent quickly to the right location.

Scenario

An employee feels threatened or unsafe in the workplace but is alone in a room with an aggressive client.

Solution

An indoor positioning system can track the employee’s location and alert security personnel or colleagues to their exact whereabouts if the employee activates a distress signal.

Manage ERO presence (BHV in Dutch)

ISP allows for the automatic presence detection of Emergency Response Officers (EROs) This gives real-time insight into the availability of sufficient EROs in the workplace.

Scenario

Most employees, especially at larger organizations, don’t even know who the EROs are and if there are sufficient EROs physically present in the workspace at any given time.

Solution

ERO-apps (BHV-app in Dutch) can automatically register when an ERO enters or exits the workspace.

Case study: Automatic presence detection

In an emergency, sufficient emergency response officers must be available to aid.

We helped this app builder by integrating Crownstone’s Indoor Positioning System into their ERO-app.

The integration of our IPS enabled their app to detect the location and availability of emergency response officers automatically.

Emergency response

In case of emergencies like fires or hazardous material spills, knowing the exact location of employees can significantly speed up evacuation and rescue efforts.

Scenario

A fire breaks out in a large manufacturing facility. Emergency services are called, but locating employees quickly is critical to minimize casualties.

Solution

An indoor positioning system can pinpoint the location of all employees within the building, enabling fire crews to prioritize rescue efforts and evacuate personnel efficiently.

Lone worker safety

Employees working alone in remote areas can be monitored, and help can be dispatched quickly if they encounter difficulties.

Scenario

A maintenance technician is working alone in a remote part of a building. They experience a fall or equipment malfunction and are unable to call for help.

Solution

With an indoor positioning system and a lone worker safety app, the technician’s location can be monitored.

When the employee activates a distress signal, e.g. using a stand-alone carry-on alarm device or a lone worker app in combination with an alarm button, the employee can quickly and easily alert designated persons or emergency services.
