Golden Gates Housing Trust was the first company to trial the integration of Guardian24 on the workflow application

Guardian24, a leading provider of lone worker safety solutions, will be announcing its latest partnership with mobile working specialists Footprint Solutions at this year’s LONE WORKER SAFETY 2014 Expo. The partnership delivers an integrated solution to manage the challenges faced by the shift towards mobile working. The “Protect” module enables mobile workers to access and gather information whilst out of the office, and provides these lone workers with a personal safety solution.

The two companies have joined forces to address the growing issue of mobile and lone worker safety. The Footprint solution is a tablet-based mobile application that provides remote workers with the ability to collect and act on up to date information enabling companies to move toward paperless, mobile working. With the integration of Guaridan24’s lone worker solution, this joint offering is the perfect fit for companies who want to meet their duty of care to ensure the personal safety of their mobile workforce.

Golden Gates Housing Trust was the first company to trial the integration of Guardian24 on the workflow application. The expo will see Peter Fitzhenry, Director of Housing Management from Golden Gates Housing Trust talk about the challenges they faced when pursuing a mobile working environment and the business benefits that the integration has provided to them. The presentation will include how the Footprint solution provides access to essential client information while working in the field, and how the integrated Guardian24 system delivers peace of mind.

Leona Mills, Marketing Manager of Guardian24, comments on why the companies have chosen the LONE WORKER SAFETY 2014 Expo to launch their new partnership: "This annual event is specifically designed for the lone worker market therefore providing the ideal backdrop to launch such a technology-advanced solution to support lone and mobile working. Both Guardian24 and Footprint Solutions are fully committed to helping safeguard individuals that work alone, which is why we wanted to share our technology with those professionals who hold health and safety at the forefront of their business operations and are committed to the same vision.”

Robert Kaiser Chair and Organiser of this annual event, states: “We are very happy indeed to welcome Guardian24 back to our LONE WORKER SAFETY Expo. It really is of great importance to us to ensure the UK’s leading experts are present to assist our visitors in making the right decision. Our highly anticipated event will once again be structured around lone worker safety and focus on health & safety professionals, lone workers themselves, managers, team leaders and senior members of staff who work within organisations where lone working takes place.”
