Case Study: WSP enhances lone worker safety with EcoOnline

How WSP ensures the safety of their lone workers with software

WSP’s UK Local Government team, part of the global engineering and professional services firm WSP, needed a safer and more flexible way to support lone workers operating on highways, in remote locations, and across sites with varying risk. They were also looking to move away from a mix of personal and shared fob devices to a simpler, app-based system that would be easier to allocate and manage remotely. EcoOnline’s StaySafe Lone Worker software was chosen to meet these needs.

EcoOnline implemented an app-based lone worker solution with hub functionality, fall detection, non-movement alerts, and options for in-house or outsourced monitoring. The team now uses the hub to monitor activity, run monthly reports, and support a 24-hour safety process with hourly check-ins, giving staff peace of mind throughout the day. WSP reported that the system is easy to use, more cost effective than their previous provider, and provides enhanced functionality and better visibility for teams.
