Myzone Worker Alert System

The award-winning MyZone proximity technology is currently being used by Amey, Balfour Beatty and others, as well as Colas Rail who recently mandated its use across the business. The MyZone worker alert system provides a safe working environment for site based personnel working in heavy industrial areas by creating a virtual exclusion zone around management defined hazards using a simple radio frequency (autonomous from any IP network). The system provides an immediate safety status for site managers and can be scaled to any number of operatives. A discreet vibrating warning via a small transmitter (which simply clips onto the back of a hard hat) gives ownership of personal safety back to the individual, allowing the wearer to make a considered choice whether to enter a predetermined exclusion zone and the risk involved. Specifically designed not to notify the operator or interact with the functionality of the heavy equipment (plant), MyZone’s philosophy is to engage and empower the individual to encourage positive behavioural change. Customers have highlighted continual in-cab alarming, whenever a pedestrian enters an exclusion zone, desensitises and irritates highly trained plant operatives to whom vigilance and care is already an existing mindset. MyZone provides simple and scalable communications system that prevents serious accidents with heavy equipment. It doesn't compromise the security and integrity of a company as no IP network is used, no data is collected, there's no feedback to management and no emissions from the hard hat mounted receiver unit. MyZone is an aid to personal awareness only and should be used in conjunction with established on site safe working practices.
