Many lone worker incidents escalate because no one sees them happening in real time. When someone is out of sight, working solo in a high-risk or unpredictable environment, visibility gaps can turn manageable incidents into major risks. So how do teams stay connected in the field when something goes wrong?
Radio checks and end-of-shift reviews don't provide visibility in the moment, especially when officers are spread across large or remote sites. To fill the gaps in worker safety, teams are using 4G-enabled body cameras to give supervisors real-time visibility, instant communication, and automatic evidence capture.
Modern body cameras for employees need to enable fast real-time support from operations. The goal is to give supervisors the ability to see what's happening in the moment so they can respond faster, and help de-escalate as incidents unfold.
Here's what to look for:
These tools fill visibility and safety gaps and provide peace of mind to frontline workers.
At a property in Northern Austin, Texas, a lone security officer encountered a trespasser making threats. As the situation escalated, the officer activated their body camera with a single press. That triggered an instant alert through their cloud-based evidence management portal.
From his phone, the supervisor opened the live stream and watched the incident unfold in real time. Using the body camera's two-way audio, he stayed connected and guided the officer until the police arrived. The entire event was streamed, recorded, and uploaded automatically to secure cloud storage.
“I wasn't even at my desk. I got the alert on my phone, opened up the live stream, and was able to see exactly what was happening and talk to my officer through his body cam to ensure he was safe.”
John Cade, Co-Owner of Next Level Security.
Capturing footage is important. But making that footage available instantly is what turns it into a powerful operational tool. Body cameras with automatic cloud upload continuously sync recorded video over 4G, so nothing is lost, and nothing is delayed.
When law enforcement arrives, or a client needs answers, supervisors can access and share footage immediately allowing incidents to be resolved faster and more safely.
