Business Challenge:
Resource industries are under constant scrutiny for their lone worker policies. At the same time, companies’ obligations to protect such workers with regular check-in and tracking practices are becoming increasingly strict. Given the limitations of cellular coverage this requirement is particularly challenging for workers that spend time working in isolated areas.
Solution:
The SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger is an affordable GPS-enabled communications device that provides a simple way to help address work alone and check-in requirements, help improve overall worker safety and provide peace of mind.
SPOT generates various messages for a series of designated email addresses and mobile phones, or to an international emergency response coordination center. All signals include GPS coordinates, the user’s preprogrammed message, and a link to Google Maps™. SPOT’s web interface provides access to profile management, account and share pages. SPOT is the ideal choice for businesses to help improve worker safety.
APEGBC Member Offer:
For new SPOT activations, the APEGBC member will receive FREE TRACKing ($50 value) for one year with the purchase of BASIC service ($100/year). APEGBC members receive their promo code by visiting www.findmespot.ca/apegbc.
Extended until March 31, 2010, the SPOT purchaser will also receive a $50 Visa Gift Card via mail-in rebate. To locate a dealer, visit www.findmespot.ca . The $50 mail-in rebate is valid on SPOT 1 only.
SPOT 2 Product Launch - February 2010
