Australian corporation selects Blackline’s tech for
best-in-class lone worker safety features, 24/7 live monitoring,
and turnkey setup
Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX: BLN), a global leader in connected
safety technology, today announced a new deal valued at $1.4
million with a water utility provider based in Australia.
After commissioning a third-party analysis that named Blackline
Safety devices the best lone worker solution on the global market,
the corporation selected Blackline and their Australian Channel
Partner to provide Blackline’s lone worker safety app, Loner
Mobile, and G7c cloud-connected devices. The award-winning wearable
G7c—with features such as SOS latch, fall and no motion detection,
and real-time connectivity—provides a critical lifeline in case of
emergency.
This is the latest in a series of deals Blackline Safety has
announced with water utility providers in recent years. Blackline
Safety devices currently protect half of the water and wastewater
companies in the United Kingdom.
“Our devices are particularly well suited to the utility
industry, including water and wastewater,” said Blackline Safety
Vice President of International Sales, Peter Attalla. “People in
these fields are at elevated risk when they go to work."
Utility industry workers face multiple hazards on the job such
as gas exposures, confined spaces, potential falls, adverse
weather, customer confrontations, and working alone in areas with
limited cellular coverage.
“More and more utility companies around the world are opting for
Blackline devices because they want the best to protect their
people. We’re noticing that utility companies want this protection
from a single provider who offers a turnkey solution with no
expensive infrastructure or complicated setup—Blackline’s solutions
tick all the boxes,” Attalla continued.
The provider also opted for three years of monitoring services
by Blackline’s Safety Operations Center (SOC). Blackline Safety’s
in-house SOC is available 24/7 and can respond to someone who needs
help in seconds.
“Blackline products, combined with our SOC monitoring, set the
standard for the safest lone worker solution on the market,” said
Heather Melder, Blackline Safety Director, Safety Operations
Center. “We’ve raised the bar in ensuring workers are safe while on
the job—they’re protected because they’re connected.”
