Example scenario

A stockroom colleague preparing a store before opening in Manchester raises a Panic Alert and reports: "I fell on the stockroom stairs and hurt my ankle. I cannot walk to the shop floor." The operator replies: "We are calling you. The store manager is arranging a first aider and a colleague to attend." The store manager confirms that assistance has reached the colleague before opening duties continue. The alert, contact, and confirmed outcome remain in the response record.

Raise an alert from the app or a satellite device
Staff can raise a Panic Alert from the app or a compatible satellite device. Operators receive the alert in the same platform they use for location awareness and communication, bringing the request for help and the response together.
Connect a Panic Alert with local support
A colleague opening or closing a store may need to request help before another manager can reach the branch. Panic Alerts from the app and compatible satellite devices bring requests for help into the same response workspace. The regional manager can attempt contact after an alert and coordinate local support with the store manager.
Give the operator the next response steps
Bring the alert, available location, and conversation together for the operator. Standard Operating Procedures guide the response steps, while Incident Management keeps assigned tasks and updates visible to the wider team.

How can an opening or closing colleague raise an alert from the store?

An app Panic Alert brings the request to the operator workspace. The operator can attempt contact, review available location information, and follow the organisation's response steps with the store manager.

Can staff raise Panic Alerts from satellite devices?

Yes. Staff can raise Panic Alerts from compatible satellite devices as well as the app. AtlasNXT is compatible with over 3,000 satellite devices. Request the compatible devices list to check your equipment and its supported alert functions.
