Everbridge Launches Industry’s First COVID-19 Return-to-Work Connectivity Hub,
Everbridge recently launched its COVID-19 Shield™ Return to Work software solution enabling customers to understand their risk landscape, recover their operations and protect their people as employees integrate back to public spaces. Everbridge COVID-19 Shield also offers unique contact tracing capabilities for organizations to automate their approach to mitigating an individual’s potential exposure to the virus at work. The introduction of
With
- Automate the process of temperature checking with thermal cameras in order to evaluate visitors to a building or secure space, and trigger follow-on protocols if the system detects an individual with a high temperature
- Evaluate building, floor and room capacity thresholds by integrating with badge access functionality, visitor management, calendaring, ticketing and other physical location modalities
- Monitor temperature, humidity and ventilation according to local and national guidelines by integrating with building management systems
- Check for room density, physical distancing and PPE compliance through video analytics
Automation includes the ability to control devices or building systems based on required workflows. If the capacity of a workspace is restricted to 10 people, for example, the 11th person to enter will automatically trigger pre-defined safety protocols and related workflows including real-time communications across multiple modalities such as public address (PA) systems, digital signage, SMS, etc.
“As part of an effective ‘return to work’ strategy, organizations need to fulfill three core objectives: know the risks facing your organization, protect your people, and recover your operations,” said
“Trends we are seeing across our global customer base prove that health and safety of an organization’s global workforce is priority number one as ‘return-to-work’ plans are executed during these uncertain times,” said
According to The Forrester Tech Tide™: Digital Physical Security And Employee Safety, Q2 2020, “Strong physical security controls can help reduce the risk of threats ranging from workplace violence to terrorism to extreme weather while also demonstrating a commitment to security that can help build employees’ confidence that the business is handling security appropriately.”
The report also states: “Physical security information management (PSIM) software solutions collect and correlate events from multiple security devices and information systems (e.g., video feeds, access control logs, environmental sensors, and other data sources) into a single view/dashboard that administrators and physical security staff can use to detect, monitor, and respond to potential security incidents. PSIM’s ability to deliver a centralized view of an organization’s physical assets helps organizations respond effectively to specific threats and mitigate physical security risks in real time.”
