Are You A Lone Worker? And Safe?

According to the United States Department of Labor’s statistics, between 2010-2013 there have been 279 work-related fatalities in the real estate and rental/leasing sector. Emergency monitoring for lone worker safety is needed, especially in life-or-death situations. In response, Kings III Emergency Communications, which provides emergency monitoring for commercial and multifamily property managers’ tenants via emergency phones, also offers SoloProtect. It’s a monitoring system featuring simple-to-use emergency communications for those who often find themselves alone at work, such as those in leasing, sales and facilities management. The device resembles an ID badge so it’s discreet, and can be activated in a health or crime emergency, or in a dangerous situation that can quickly escalate. It opens a one-way communication with the Kings III emergency dispatch service and allows for a proper assessment of the situation. A yellow alert is also available, in which the lone worker can report whereabouts ahead of time, such as address, floor number and room number. Contrary to popular belief, most 911 call centers cannot detect location from a cellphone call. For more information on our Bisnow partner, click here.
