Lone Worker Safety
A dedicated panic device the size of a key fob — built for workers in the field who need to call for help fast, discreetly, and without a phone.
Key Features
The SafeCall device is completely independent. Its own SIM, its own OS, its own GPS chip. No Bluetooth. No reliance on the worker's phone.
Press and hold 2–3 seconds. No passwords, no app, no screen. Works in a pocket or under a jacket.
How it works
Four simple steps. No app required. Works anywhere there's cellular signal.
Once to confirm and three times to let them know it’s been successfully connected. Nothing further needed.

Products & contracts
Start with the app, go all-in with the device, or combine both for complete coverage. All plans include 24/7 monitoring.
For organizations wanting safety coverage on existing worker phones — no extra hardware needed.
Higher-risk field workers who need a reliable, phone-independent panic solution that works even if their phone is taken, dead, or out of reach.
The most complete protection. Every scenario your team might face is covered.
The device is rated IP67, which means it can be submerged in 3 feet of water (1Meter) for up to 30 minutes. So if you’re out in heavy rain or you drop it in the sink, no need for worry.
You must never open the device, though, as that would permanently break the seal
The device does need a cell signal to send a message. However it communicates by sending small bursts of data; unlike a phone, it is not trying to set up a two-way voice call, which needs much more bandwidth. Consequently it will often be able to connect to the network when a phone cannot.
If the SOS button is pressed in an area with absolutely no cell signal, it will not be able to send a message, and you will not receive the 3-buzz confirmation. However it will repeatedly continue to ping the network until it successfully connects, and then it will raise the alarm. The user will feel three vibrations when it has successfully connected. There is no need to continuously press the button, as each press will be treated as a separate alarm.
