How do our customers use public alerting?
Each example highlights how a secure, public alerting and communications system provides benefits for public agencies.
Checking in with employees during Covid-19
Some organisations use public alerts to carry out a daily health check with their remote workforce. The data from responses is used to assign a red, amber, green (RAG) rating to key organisational indicators such as: operational status, emergency resilience, supply chain resilience, operational security, and environmental safety every day.
Informing tenants of unplanned events
A Housing Association uses public alerting to notify residents when unplanned incidents occur, such as gas or power outages, which could impact access or operational efficiency. Public alerts enable two-way, secure communications with tenants and responders to improve services.
Ensuring guest safety in hotels
A hotel uses public alerts to alert guests about incidents within the hotel such as suspected bomb or terror attacks, fires, or other incidents that result in access restrictions from police or local authorities.
