“The Peoplesafe app gives our people an added layer of safety while on the job and particularly for many of our colleagues that work alone for long periods of the day. It also helps us to address an area we have less control: attacks by members of the public.”
Adam Elsworth, Safety Director
“All our drivers use the service, plus several office staff who work weekends on their own. Our drivers are spread across Cornwall, Devon and now into the Bristol area and to give them a peace of mind while being away from their depots is very important.”
Shaun Campbell, Health & Safety Manager
“It’s simple and easy to use, plus it gives staff the feeling of security. If a system is difficult then staff just won’t use it. Just by having it on their person makes them feel more confident.”
Karl Reid, Health, Safety & Security Manager
“All in all, it’s complete peace of mind that our Engineers have protection when out working.”
Alan Cowlishaw, Compliance Engineer

Tetra testing
Our lone worker app and device solutions can all be equipped with fall detection. With this feature, an alarm will automatically be activated to the Peoplesafe control centre when the phone or device detects the employee has fallen.
Fall detection has successfully been tested with the Tetra system.
The sensitivity level can be modified on all solutions. Your staff can change the sensitivity settings themselves on the app to reduce false alarms.
