“If you know how to use a smartphone, you also know how to use this application.”

Ensuring lone worker safety is crucial to Komatsu Forest Oy’s operations due to the risks associated with the work. With Secapp’s lone working safety features, these risks can be addressed, and potential accidents can be responded to very quickly.

Komatsu Forest is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of forest machines. Teemu Pesonen works at Komatsu Forest Oy, Finland, as an after-market specialist and occupational safety officer. The company’s field workers working alone face risks in their daily work that must be addressed under occupational safety laws.

– We received a request from our headquarters in Sweden, asking us to find out what the Finnish law says about lone working. Working in our company, the biggest risks are getting crushed or falling off a machine, Pesonen explains.

Secapp’s lone worker switch seemed like a good solution to address these risks. It’s a motion detection-based automatic alarm that is sent to pre-selected recipients if the user has not moved or turned off the timer within a certain time.

– The demo trial before Secapp’s implementation went smoothly, thanks to the professional trainers from Secapp, Pesonen praises.

– If you know how to use a smartphone, you can certainly use this application as well. This service helps us react to possible accidents very quickly.

Initially, there were some concerns about how the application would work in the northern forests of Rovaniemi, Lapland. However, no problems have occurred, and the solution has worked as expected.

Customer service and collaboration with Secapp have been excellent.

– They call and check how things are going. They can be reached by phone, email, and also through the Secapp app. Responses come almost immediately.

Secapp has proven to be a good and effective solution, which has led to Komatsu Forest thinking about expanding its use. The company is planning on expanding the use of the system for the company’s technical support, since they often work in the field, as well.

“I recommend Secapp to all companies whose employees work alone in the field.”
