Organizations and employees in search of a solution to monitor worker status and trigger emergency alerts automatically
About My Safety Buddy
My Safety Buddy is a lone worker safety platform that combines a smartphone application with a web-based management portal to help organizations monitor and protect employees who work alone, in isolation, or remotely. It replaces traditional safety devices with a mobile-based solution that continuously monitors worker wellbeing and automatically triggers alerts if an incident occurs. Workers can activate a duress or panic alarm instantly by shaking their phone or pressing a wearable button, sending emergency notifications and location information to designated contacts or monitoring services. It also includes automated “man down” detection that monitors inactivity; if no movement is detected for a configurable period, the app prompts the user to confirm they are safe and triggers an alert if there is no response. Regular welfare checks and quick five-second check-ins allow workers to confirm their status throughout the day.

Neovigie
Neovigie is a cloud-based safety management platform designed to protect employees who work alone or in isolated environments by providing real-time monitoring, automated alerts, and emergency communication tools. It combines mobile applications, wearable devices, satellite connectivity, and a centralized web platform to maintain constant supervision of lone workers across different industries and work conditions. Workers activate the protection system at the start of their shift using a smartphone app, smartwatch, or dedicated alert device, allowing supervisors to monitor their status and receive notifications if an incident occurs. It can trigger both manual alarms, such as an SOS panic button, and automatic alerts based on risk detection algorithms that identify falls, lack of movement, loss of vertical position, or connection loss.

Safepoint
Safepoint is a lone worker safety platform that combines a mobile application, wearable safety devices, and a centralized monitoring service to help organizations protect employees who work alone or in high-risk environments. The Safepoint app, available for iOS and Android, transforms a smartphone into a personal safety alarm that allows workers to quickly request help, check in during tasks, and share their real-time status with supervisors or safety teams. It supports multiple types of alerts, including manual SOS alarms triggered with a single tap, automatic time-out alarms that activate if a worker fails to confirm they are safe at the end of a task, and fall detection alarms when paired with wearable safety devices. When an alert is triggered, the system sends the worker’s live GPS location and safety data to designated contacts or a professional monitoring service that operates around the clock.

Vygard
Vygard is a lone worker safety platform for organisations with employees working alone or in isolated settings, including care, construction, security, forestry, utilities and field services.

Alerts can escalate to nominated contacts and responders through push notifications, SMS, WhatsApp and voice, with an optional Alarm Receiving Centre. The platform provides event records and reporting, and Howie AI can flag missed check-ins and prepare incident summaries. Vygard supports iOS and Android, browser-based administration, and integrations with communications, IT service, HR and CRM systems. It is offered by Take 2 Technology to organisations managing lone-worker safety and emergency response workflows.

TrackLone
WP25 Lone Worker Safety Device is an industrial lone worker safety device built by TrackLone for workers operating alone in high-risk environments. It is a compact, uniform-mounted hardware device that continuously monitors worker movement, location, and inactivity and triggers automatic emergency alerts without requiring the worker to initiate contact. It is purpose-built for deployment in mining, manufacturing, construction, FMCG, and warehousing, and facility and security operations where isolated workers face delayed emergency response as a daily operational risk.
The central problem this Industrial Worker Safety Solution solves is the gap between when an incident happens and when help arrives. In industrial environments, a worker who falls, collapses, or becomes incapacitated is often unable to call for help.
Developed by TrackLone in coordination with PsiBorg.
