At Forrest Security, we know that safety is paramount in every workplace. Panic alarms are the solution for businesses that want to protect their employees and customers from the unexpected.
These are designed to get help fast in an emergency so action can be taken to prevent harm.
Whether it’s a shop that’s prone to theft, a hospital where patient safety is key or an office with lone workers, panic alarms add an extra layer of security.
They reduce risk, create a safe environment and staff feel safe knowing they can call for help when they need to.
What is a Panic Alarm?
So, what are panic alarms? A panic alarm is a security device that allows you to signal for help in an emergency. It’s usually a button or remote that when pressed sends a signal to security or emergency services.
These can be part of a bigger security setup, such as a CCTV system or alarm system, for total protection.
At Forrest Security, we have panic alarms for various environments, from schools and hospitals to offices and shops.
Our systems fit into any workspace and are easy to use and reliable.
Immediate Response to Emergencies
One of the key benefits of panic alarms is they trigger an immediate response in an emergency.
When activated the alarm notifies the relevant authorities or internal security teams so action can be taken quickly. This is especially important in places where time is of the essence, like hospitals or banks.
As well as getting help fast, panic alarms can also deter criminals from escalating a situation.
The knowledge that help is on its way often stops further aggressive behaviour and protects staff and customers in real time.
Reducing Physical Confrontation
Panic alarms are most valuable in reducing the risk of physical confrontation in high risk environments. When dealing with aggressive customers or individuals the ability to discreetly call for help can stop an altercation from escalating.
This is especially important in retail where staff may be faced with theft or violence.
By giving staff a way to call for help discreetly businesses can prevent direct confrontation and reduce the risk of injury or further escalation.
At Forrest Security we believe in arming businesses with the tools to manage difficult situations safely.
Employee Confidence
Knowing a panic alarm system is in place can boost employee morale and confidence. Staff who feel safe are more focused on their work and more productive knowing help is just a button press away.
This is especially important in lone worker environments where staff may be alone and exposed.
Installing panic alarms tells staff their safety is a priority and that sense of security translates into a better workplace.
At Forrest Security, we specialise in solutions that promote both safety and staff wellbeing.
Health & Safety Regulations
In many industries, panic alarms are not just a nice to have but a must-have. Businesses in high-risk environments must comply with health and safety regulations and installing panic alarm systems is one way to meet those regulations.
Compliance not only protects staff but also protects the business from potential legal repercussions.
Forrest Security will advise and install your panic alarm system to meet all safety requirements.
We want to help you create a safe compliant workspace that protects your staff and your business.
Panic alarms are an essential tool in today’s workplace, get help fast, reduce confrontation and total security.
