• Vismo, RapidSOS Partner to Enhance Lone Worker Safety

    The partnership enables Vismo’s customer employees who are feeling unsafe or at risk.
    May 1, 2023

    Vismo, a provider of employee tracking, monitoring and safety solutions, partnered with RapidSOS, a safety platform provider, to provide United States based lone workers with more immediate access to first responders whenever and wherever they feel unsafe or are in an emergency.

    The partnership enables Vismo’s customer employees who are feeling unsafe or at risk, including being in a life-threatening situation, to get advice — and direct, emergency help if required.

    Through its platform, RapidSOS provides intelligent data that supports over 15,000 first responder agencies worldwide, covering over 95% of the U.S. population. 

    The solution works for those customer employees who have downloaded the Vismo App on their phone or other device (tablet, satellite phone or satellite tracker). When the panic button is pressed, the app will automatically send a user’s name, contact information, precise location and a 10-second audio clip of the ensuing situation.  

     The app is available for use, with immediate effect, to all Vismo employers in the U.S.
