Managing risk with a radio system

By Keith Edwards, managing director, TES Radio

This is where radio systems come into their own. Unlike cellular mobile communications, radio systems are “always-on”; there are no network outages and they don’t get switched off in civil emergency situations.

However, there are also some very practical radio system features that you need to consider as key risk management tools.

Failure to do this will make the radio signal an alert to somebody who has the ability to monitor emergencies, such as the closest first responder. In addition, the Man Down function detects if your colleague is moving, or if the radio is positioned at an unusual angle for a period of time, before alerting designated colleagues.Amongst the benefits of our systems are Health and Safety compliance, call recording (audit trail), workforce safety, and cost-effective protection your business assets.
