There are certain professions in which personnel security is extra important, because people who practice these professions are generally more at risk and are more likely to find themselves in unsafe situations. Consider, for example, people in healthcare or assistance, industry or (semi-)government.
Unfortunately, we hear more and more often that care providers have to deal with aggression and violence while carrying out their work. Aid workers not only have to deal with physical violence, but are also threatened, intimidated and verbally abused. Ambulance personnel, police and fire brigades are hindered in their work while they try to help other people.
In healthcare, the risk for nurses and care providers is also high, especially when working with clients or patients who have reduced accountability. Aggression is also becoming increasingly common in outpatient/extramural work. The certainty that you will be helped at the touch of a button gives you a safer feeling and provides a safer working environment.
Even if you are not directly confronted with aggression or physical or verbal violence, you may still be at risk in your workplace. For example: industry, construction, in factories or if you work with hazardous materials or in extreme temperatures. X-Guard has one for those situations man down system (the RISK button): your mobile phone works as a motion sensor and if it does not detect sufficient movement for a certain period of time (for example if you have lost consciousness), an alarm is automatically sent to the X-Guard alarm center. This way, help will come to you, even if you are unable to send an alarm yourself. Moreover, you don't have to worry about an alarm being sent unintentionally when you go to the toilet or take a break; the X-Guard personnel protection first gives a pre-alarm that you can set in length yourself, before the alarm is raised. In addition, the app can be set so that the RISK button is automatically switched back on (self-protection "On") or off (self-protection "Off") when you are at a certain location.
If you want the aforementioned security without having to worry about the costs incurred for alarming or the use of a mobile security guard, it is best to opt for a High Risk package.
Civil servants at (semi-)governmental institutions are also increasingly confronted with violence. The cause can often be traced back to great powerlessness and frustration about all kinds of matters concerning the government. This frustration can lead to violence or threats. Although the anger is often not personal, the threat is real and must be acted upon. Train inspectors, tram and bus drivers may also have to deal with excessive force during the late hours. A boa (special investigating officer) is someone who is authorized to check someone's identity or issue fines. They are also responsible for parking policy within municipalities. If there is an unsafe situation during their work, an aggressive person (or several persons) they can send an alarm with X-Guard and help is guaranteed. In this way, those who are generally responsible for public safety are also assured of help when they need it.
During the peak of the corona pandemic, it was the norm for people to work from home for a long time. X-Guard believes that your safety should always come first. Even if you work alone, working safely is the most pleasant. Suppose you are alone at home or in an office building - accidents or other unsafe situations can arise. You or one of your colleagues may become unwell in the workplace; If there is no one at home or in the building to help you or your colleague, X-Guard is also there for you.
We believe it is important that everyone can retain the right to freedom and security.

The X-Guard Alarm app can also automatically send an alarm via the innovative man-down system. You don't have to pick up your phone first to raise the alarm. You enable the man-down system by activating the Risk button on the home screen. From that moment on, the X-Guard Alarm app monitors your movement. If insufficient movement is detected for the set time, the phone will emit a sound and/or vibrate signal to contact you. If you do not respond to this pre-alarm, an alarm will automatically be sent to the alarm center. So you can be sure that, even if you cannot set the alarm yourself, you anytime, anywhere, safe are.
