Vismo and RapidSOS in lone worker safety partnership

Employee tracking, monitoring and safety solutions provider Vismo has announced a partnership with intelligent safety platform RapidSOS, which will enable Vismo’s customer employees who are feeling unsafe or at risk, including being in a life threatening situation, to get advice - and direct, emergency help if required, across the US, 24/7.

Through its platform, RapidSOS provides intelligent data that supports over 15,000 first responder agencies worldwide, covering over 95% of the US population.

The solution works for those customer employees who have downloaded the Vismo App on their phone or other device. When the panic button is pressed, the app will automatically send a user’s name, contact information, precise location and a 10-second audio clip of the ensuing situation.

“Any response delay can be costly or put the employee at greater risk,” says Vismo CEO Craig Swallow. “Our partnership sees Vismo use RapidSOS technology to address this issue and gather data and information to provide extra context to an incident. In return, app users are better protected with a more immediate and appropriate response from the emergency or other services.”

“This real time collaboration assists at-risk employees more effectively. Any or all of this can be crucial to ensuring a positive outcome for those at risk and also helps reduce reputational brand damage and other costs for the employer.”
