Case Study: Summer Village Ghost Lake achieves compliant lone-worker safety and increased productivity with Blackline Safety’s Loner M6

Blackline Offers Confidence and Increased Productivity for Employees Working Alone

Summer Village Ghost Lake, a small municipality in Southern Alberta, needed a reliable way to meet Work Alone legislation while hiring seasonal staff who often work out of sight or sound of others. To address this challenge, Blackline Safety provided the village with a Loner M6 lone‑worker safety device and associated monitoring services.

Blackline Safety’s solution — the Loner M6 plus 24/7 Safety Operations Center monitoring and the Blackline Live portal — delivered automatic fall detection, two‑way speakerphone, messaging and real‑time location tracking. The service allowed the village to hire a summer student who could check in with a single button instead of making manual calls, increased worker confidence and supervisor visibility, and ensured compliance with Work Alone regulations.
