Lone worker safety in cleaning
Cleaners are mostly working in isolation, indoors and outside normal working hours. When a lone worker inside the building needs help, the information about his or her accurate location is not always available.
TWIG lone worker alarms can determine the accurate location from nearby installed TWIG SRD beacons also when GPS signal is not available.
