A high-risk industry

Nearly one person a week is fatally injured as a direct result of agricultural work. Injury occurrences, including serious ones, are an even more common occurrence.

Whether it's working at height, working with dangerous machinery or hazardous chemicals, dealing with livestock or working near pits and silos there are many risks associated with working in the agricultural industry. Consequently, agricultural organisations must be vigilant and consider all available measures to safeguard workers and ensure a quick response when an accident does occur.

And, of course, to keep the operation moving, knowing the location of your mobile workers so you can efficiently redeploy them whenever necessary is vital.

Features


Whether you need help in an emergency or non-emergency support during a high-risk activity, the SoloProtect solution can give workers peace of mind that someone will be there to assist should the worst occur.

Red Alert - emergency alarm
Activating a discreet Red Alert in an emergency will open contact with our Alarm Receiving Centre. Here, trained operators will listen in and initiate a response – all in just over 30 seconds. This could be alerting the emergency services or contacting a manager or family member.

Check-In
About to enter a high-risk site or complete a dangerous task? Users can leave a voice message with the Alarm Receiving Centre detailing their current location, situation, and status to aid the operator in dealing with subsequent Red or Incapacitation Alerts.

Incapacitation Alert - man down alarm
Our clever devices can sense if the user is physically incapacitated - usually after a slip, trip, or fall. This automatically raises an alarm with our Alarm Receiving Centre where operatives can quickly get help to the user. Vital functionality for anyone who works at height.

Ready2Talk
A live call with the Alarm Receiving Centre which can be used in situations where there's clear evidence of a potential for risk and the user would benefit from additional support e.g. climbing a high ladder in bad weather.

How does a Red Alert work?

24/7 support, at the push of a button.

You feel your personal safety is threatened, or could be seriously compromised.

Select the ‘Red Alert’ function on your device to raise an alarm.
Note: A man-down alarm will be raised automatically if the device senses that you're incapacitated.

SoloProtect devices are enabled with cellular technology to raise an alarm with our Alarm Receiving Centre (or your designated alarm contact) on your behalf.

Our specially trained operators will verify the seriousness of the alarm and initiate an appropriate response e.g. alerting the emergency services, a manager or family member.

An efficient response

SoloProtect is BS 8484:2016 accredited. This means our Alarm Receiving Centre can bypass the central 999 system and, instead, dial straight into any regional police force in England and Wales saving valuable time.

We also use what3words to help pinpoint and communicate the exact location of an incident within a 3m square which is essential on larger agricultural sites.

Geolocation (including what3words) and cellular technology (4G, 3G, and 2G) ensure we can communicate with users and pinpoint their location whenever they need support.

Small and mighty
All our devices are small and light weight and have a range of attachments so you can wear it on your belt, attach it to your keyring or lanyard, or simply put it in your pocket.

Health and safety for contractors

According to the ONS, 15% of the UK workforce is made up of contractors. Therefore, as an employer or manager, it's important to understand your obligations and consider the health and safety practices of contractors both on- and off-site.

Take a look at our useful guide which examines duty of care, lone working, and sub-contracted arrangements.
