Safety, no matter where your staff are

Your staff are your most valuable asset. Keeping them safe, supported, and connected is essential.

Lone workers aren’t limited to remote locations. Many operate in everyday settings: visiting clients, inspecting worksites, or travelling alone. Each situation carries its own risks, from public aggression and vehicle accidents to environmental hazards or equipment failure.

Smartrak’s lone worker safety solutions give organisations confidence that every worker is visible, connected, and able to call for help when it matters most.

With on-person and in-vehicle GPS- and satellite-enabled devices offering discreet duress alerts, automated monitoring, and 24/7 response options, your team stays safe whether they’re off-site, on the road, or working independently.

Lone Worker Safety device Benefits

Coverage and connectivity, no matter where

Stay connected on or off the grid

Smartrak’s solutions include both cellular and satellite options, ensuring lone workers can always communicate - whether they’re in the city or beyond mobile coverage.
Real-time location tracking

See where your people are, when it matters most

Continuous GPS tracking gives you live visibility of staff locations, enabling rapid responses in emergencies and peace of mind for managers overseeing remote or off-site teams.
Automated safety alerts

Automatic alerts when something’s wrong

Built-in person-down and inactivity detection trigger alerts if a worker becomes unresponsive or falls, ensuring help is dispatched quickly even if they can’t raise the alarm themselves.
Covert duress activation

Discreet alerts for rapid support

Covert duress buttons allow workers to signal for help without drawing attention - crucial for roles involving public interaction or potentially volatile situations.
24/7 Security monitoring

Round-the-clock protection, day or night

Organisations can manage alerts internally or through Smartrak’s trusted 24/7 monitoring partners across Australia and New Zealand, ensuring immediate action at any time of day.

What our Customers say

  • “Our staff are often working in remote areas without mobile coverage. We needed a solution that would let us know where they are and how safely they’re driving.”
    Kathleen, Wellbeing and Safety Advisor, Primary ITO
    “Some of our team members go out into remote areas. They might find themselves in a situation where their vehicle gets bogged, or there’s an incident with a customer, or they’re in a car accident. A key reason for investing in the system was the duress capabilities that makes sure our team members have the ability to contact people within the business.”
    Bevan Knowles Team Leader Fleet and Facilities TasNetworks
    “There was no real pushback from staff, they saw that if something did happen, they had a safety device and system that was there for them.”
    Murray Irrigation HSE Support Manager.
  • “Our business is involved in working in provincial and rural areas where we have lone worker situations. Some of these areas where staff are driving are also quite volatile in terms of the weather and other risk factors”
    Nick Robillard Procurement & Property Manager, Meridian Energy
    Meridian energy logo
    “When we have an emergency event and someone presses the alert button, the first thing we do is call their phone. If we can’t get through, we contact their manager. Failing that, I use the Smartrak map interface to locate the closest vehicle and have that person go to the scene.”
    Kathleen, Wellbeing and Safety Advisor, Primary ITO
