Lone Worker - July 2026
Exciting New Features now available!
Improve safety and operational efficiency with location-based automation that triggers real-time alerts and workflows when workers enter or leave designated areas.
Geofencing is a location-based technology that creates a virtual boundary around a specific geographic area. When a person, vehicle, or device enters or exits that area, the system can automatically trigger an action such as sending an alert, recording an event, or enabling specific functionality.
For example, in workplace safety and lone worker solutions, geofencing can be used to:
- Alert supervisors when a worker enters a hazardous area.
- Trigger check-ins when someone arrives at a job site.
- Generate notifications when a worker leaves an approved work zone.
- Support emergency response by providing location-based context.
