WHO WE PROTECT: WAREHOUSE/FACTORY WORKERS
You work hard. You may put in long hours or log odd shifts. But being strong, tough, and experienced doesn’t mean accidents and emergencies won’t happen. Warehouses often involve lots of moving pieces and heavy machinery, and shifts may be physically exerting or exhausting.
- Annual warehouse injury and fatality rates are rising1
- 4.8 out of every 100 warehouse workers get injured or sick2
- As e-commerce continues its explosive growth, pressure is put on warehouses and factories to keep pace, creating hazardous working conditions that jeopardize worker safety
Studies show that employees who feel safe and valued by their employers are more productive and more likely to remain with a company long-term.
To this end, a personal emergency button alarm should be included in every warehouse and factory safety plan.
A personal safety alarm can help every warehouse and factory address the 8 most common occupational hazards:3
(OSHA’s #1 cited hazard)
(the most common cause
of workplace injuries)
In the event of any of the above emergencies, or any other industrial accident, workers simply need to press a button to immediately receive help. If a worker falls and is unable to press his or her button, our automatic fall detection feature can recognize that a fall has taken place and automatically send an alert to our Emergency Monitoring Center.
Our trained agents will dispatch EMTs, police, fire department, company personnel, or any other form of assistance that is needed.
Alert buttons can be worn on belt clips or lanyards.
