For example, a healthcare professional may travel short distances </del>in <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">their personal vehicle to meet with patients at their homes. GPS tracking allows managers to monitor </del>the <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">location of these employees even as they leave their vehicle </del>and <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">enter patient's properties.<br /><br />The GH5200 is a small</del>, <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">self-contained lone worker device designed </del>for <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">personal tracking and security.

The device is equipped with a number </del>of <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">user-definable buttons and features, two-way communication, and an emergency SOS latch.<br /><br />When paired with SHEQSY, GPS is a valuable tool for monitoring </del>lone workers <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">in remote or challenging to access areas. The system can set up geofence boundaries for each site that a lone worker is assigned to, and will alert emergency contacts whenever the lone worker device enters or exits these predefined areas.<br /><br />While many lone worker safety devices utilize GPS technology</del>, it <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">is </del>important to <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">consider the specific hazards in each working environment when selecting a solution. For example, a GPS signal can be blocked by underground working environments or by the heavy concrete structure of a building.

Some standalone devices can be worn on </ins>a <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">keychain or clipped to clothing. Some have louder alarms than others but you can find more discreet and quiet options like the Bivy Stick with SafetyAware.<br /><br />Lone worker </ins>monitoring <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">systems can be a vital tool for businesses in any industry.

For example</ins>, a <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">healthcare professional may travel short distances in their personal </ins>vehicle to <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">meet with patients at their homes. GPS tracking allows managers to monitor </ins>the <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">location </ins>of <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">these employees even as they leave </ins>their <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">vehicle and enter patient's properties</ins>.<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline"><br /><br />The GH5200 is a small, self-contained lone worker device designed for personal tracking and security. It is a highly configurable, autonomous GPS tracker with 2G connectivity and an accelerometer.

The </ins>device <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">is equipped with </ins>a <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">number of user-definable buttons and features, two-way communication, </ins>and an emergency <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">SOS latch</ins>.<br /><br /><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">When paired with SHEQSY, GPS is a valuable tool for monitoring </ins>lone workers <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">in remote or challenging </ins>to <ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">access areas.
