Safeguard Your Lone Workers with VigieWatch

Businesses must comply with strict regulations to ensure the health and safety of their employees at all times. Safety watches help employers meet these legal requirements while keeping employees protected from dangerous situations. These easy-to-use alert devices protect lone workers effectively without altering their routines or reducing their efficiency. With cutting-edge technology, safety watches can handle up to 8 types of safety alerts, each of which can be independently configured to meet the specific needs of lone workers.

Manual alarm

Trigger a discreet manual alarm directly from the safety watch and notify supervisors.

No-Motion Detection

Detect when the safety watch remains motionless for a set period, complementing fall detection for cases where workers become incapacitated without falling.

Geofencing - Entry Alert

Configure specific zones on a map, triggering an alert when entering a designated area.

Geofencing – Exit Alerts

Alerts are triggered if the worker leaves a predefined safe zone.

Lifeline

When to Use a Safety Watch?

Transforming a smartwatch into a safety watch is the perfect alternative to other alert devices, such as smartphone applications or standalone devices.

Certain industries prohibit employees from carrying smartphones for safety or hygiene reasons. In other cases, workers may forget their phones or find them cumbersome during highly mobile tasks.

A safety watch is ergonomic and practical, staying on the worker’s wrist throughout the day. It allows discreet alarms in case of aggression, as the watch is always within easy reach

Advantages of a Safety Watch

The Safety Watch has several advantages in front of other devices for the safety of lone workers.

Enhanced Safety: The safety watch enables discreet manual alarms to avoid escalating an aggressive situation.
Ease of use: Simple and ergonomic, the watch provides continuous protection, reducing stress and building worker confidence.
Precise Location Tracking: Built-in GPS technology pinpoints the worker's location in real time during emergencies.
Customizable Settings: Tailor the watch to meet the specific requirements of your organization and each worker’s mission, offering a cohesive safety solution.

Revolutionary Fall Detection with Neovigie

Fall detection thanks to AI

Neovigie sets new standards for fall detection with its unique AI-driven algorithm trained on thousands of fall scenarios. Unlike traditional verticality loss detectors, this system allows workers to perform tasks lying down or seated without triggering a false alarm.

Fall detection is one of the most critical features of a lone worker alert system. Neovigie’s innovative approach ensures maximum protection without hindering productivity.

Locate Safety Watches During Alarms

GPS Location
The watch’s GPS receiver provides precise outdoor location data, converted into addresses for easy navigation.
Bluetooth Location
Inside buildings, GPS alone may not suffice. Bluetooth beacons installed within facilities enhance accuracy, helping locate workers in real-time.

Notify Supervisors Across Multiple Channels

When an alarm is triggered, Neovigie immediately notifies supervisors. Multiple supervisors can be alerted simultaneously for added security, with escalation levels ensuring higher-ranked supervisors are contacted if necessary.

Doubt Removal Calls – Directly on the Watch

Supervisors can verify the alarm situation by calling the safety watch. The worker doesn’t need to answer manually – calls are auto-answered with the speaker activated.
In emergencies, conversations may be recorded under strict legal guidelines for analysis and evidence collection.

Lifeline Feature for No-Network Zones

The Lifeline feature ensures safety even in areas without Wi-Fi or GSM coverage. Workers can activate a countdown timer, and if they fail to deactivate it before it ends, an alarm is triggered automatically.
‍To avoid false alarms, the system sends a pre-alert notification, reminding the worker to acknowledge the timer. This feature is particularly useful for workers operating in remote or high-risk areas, providing an additional layer of protection and ensuring that supervisors are notified in real-time when assistance might be required.
