Reacts quickly to lone worker in trouble
July 1st 2005

When steel fabricator William Hare carried out a safety assessment on workers operating cutting and drilling equipment at its Bury site, assessors found that the location of the equipment in booths separating them from other workers could pose a risk and delay first aid in the event of an accident or fall.

The SBES LifeSaver Micro system provided a solution. It equips each of the machine operators with a personal wireless transmitter that automatically activates an audio and visual alarm system if the user tilts more than 45°. This means that help is summoned in the first vital seconds after a fall. The system can also be programmed to summon help via phone messages or pagers.

William Hare’s commitment to safety has earned it a gold award from RoSPA.
