Lone Worker Safety · Chemical Manufacturing & COMAH
Lone Worker Safety for chemical manufacturing & comah sites.
Welfare monitoring that raises an alert when a worker stops moving or misses a check-in — before a bad day becomes a fatality. Purpose-built for the regulatory and operational realities of chemical manufacturing & comah.
The Salvus Network watches for the tell-tale signs of a lone-worker incident: someone who has stopped moving in a restricted area, missed a check-in window, or lingered somewhere they shouldn't. When a welfare condition is met, operators get an alert with the worker's last-read location so help can be dispatched immediately. It closes the gap between an incident and the response, which is where lone-worker outcomes are won or lost. For chemical manufacturing & comah operators, this means on a COMAH site, a delayed or inaccurate muster is not an inconvenience — it is a regulatory and human failure. Paper roll-calls and radio round-robins are too slow when a release or fire is unfolding, and they leave no defensible record. The Salvus Network reads every worker's Tag at muster points and gates to give marshals a live, auditable head count in seconds, so search effort is directed accurately and the incident record writes itself.
