How SafetyLine Enhances Productivity and Efficiency in the Workplace
No worker is an island. And this should extend to occupational safety, which impacts several critical areas of your organization – in ways that might be surprising.
Occupational safety is connected to several organizational priorities, including mental health, work culture, and productivity and quality of the work produced. One of the most significant benefits of a safe workplace is that the quantity and quality tend to improve because employees feel more valued by the employer and value their work more.
Employees working alone face the unique challenge of having different access to emergency help than a pair or team does. Even if they can request assistance, emergency responders may face major issues such as determining the lone worker’s location and providing help to that person who might be located inside a confined space or structure. As an emergency response app for lone workers, SafetyLine will significantly increase the chances of a successful response and the outcome for the injured person and the organization.
SafetyLine: not just a safety app
To address these particular safety challenges, SafetyLine provides a comprehensive selection of safety features developed over the more than 20 years it has spent protecting people who work alone. But in addition to the many OHS benefits, this lone worker safety app can also enhance efficiency within the workplace due to reasons mentioned earlier, as well as more that you will see below.
Real-time monitoring, real-time productivity
SafetyLine is a cloud-based, real-time tracking safety system that provides valuable lone worker data as it is taking place. One of the SafetyLine app benefits is empowering the employer to identify inefficiencies and areas for automation and better time/resource allocation, improving overall productivity and capacity. But more importantly, it helps notify the employer if an accident has taken place and the lone worker needs immediate emergency help.
The power of automated check-ins
A straightforward but effective safety monitoring strategy regularly requires the lone worker to check in with their employer to confirm their safety following their shift or previously agreed-upon time. While safety check-ins can be performed manually, those systems may be at risk of mistakes such as missed check-ins or missed emergency notifications/messages from the lone worker. However, an automated system like SafetyLine eliminates the risk of human error through effective reminders (for both employee and employer/monitor) and a lone worker safety app that is easy to implement and use on a device you already have, like a smartphone or tablet.
An automated check-in system also reduces administrative tasks that can add up to much misused time throughout the day. This proven system minimizes wasted work hours so that it can be spent on tasks with more excellent value and greater priority for your company and its operations. Primarily, SafetyLine is a lone worker safety app, but it is also a very effective workplace productivity tool for the organization.
Communication is made easy with the SafetyLine app
A critical factor in an automated check-in system is that it provides effective communication features for lone workers who notify the employer if they are safe or not. Through the SafetyLine app, lone workers can experience reliable, seamless communication through check-ins, voice and text messaging, real-time tracking, satellite, and GPS connection that allows them to request help, working from anywhere in the world.
Especially when performing dangerous tasks that require all of the lone worker’s attention, they need to focus on the work at hand and can communicate easily. Lone workers require assured communication because of their more vulnerable occupational environment and limited access to emergency help if they get hurt.
Reporting tools: data-driven insights
While the lone worker’s well-being is monitored, the valuable OHS data collected can be utilized for custom safety reports. The employer can easily create tailored reports on user history, system history, user summary, and user compliance. The reports can help guide informed decision-making around your people’s safety, finding areas to improve productivity and be more efficient.
Why user experience matters
As one of the first lone worker safety solutions, SafetyLine has developed an incredibly intuitive user interface (UI) for the lone worker safety app, improving user experience (UX) so that more attention can be paid to their work and what they need to do. Over the years, SafetyLine has designed a streamlined UI that promotes more productivity by making it easy to use with zero disruption to operations. Additionally, this focus on UX results in a safety technology that is easy to onboard and teach new users how to use the system and begin lone worker monitoring almost immediately.
Integrations and adaptability
As we just mentioned, SafetyLine’s user-friendly app can be onboarded and brought into an organization quickly and easily. It also integrates smoothly with complementary safety technologies and devices such as satellite and GPS messengers. This means that SafetyLine’s adaptability allows companies to use it with other existing safety strategies and protocols, developing a more robust overall safety program for the company and its lone workers. The easy integration and versatility allow SafetyLine to continue to be used throughout organizational and staff changes, evolving as the company does.
A boost to lone worker safety and monitoring
As a company experiences changes with new policies and turnover in staff, SafetyLine is designed to weather it all so that your lone workers can be connected and protected when performing their jobs in high-risk environments. SafetyLine will impact all levels of the organization, providing protection and peace of mind to the person working alone and a boost in productivity and similar peace of mind that these people are safe for the employers.
