► HOW IS AN ALARM TRIGGERED?
» Manual trigger via app, widget and hardware button
» Automatic trigger in the event of a fall and immobility
» Automatic trigger through an alarm timer (dead mans switch)
► WHAT HAPPENS IF AN ALARM IS TRIGGERED?
As soon as an alarm has been triggered, the emergency contacts you have defined will receive a call and a text message or an email with the emergency message and a link. All relevant emergency information can be viewed using the web browser.
► WHAT DO I HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION TO DURING USE?
To provide best protection, the following requirements must be met:
» App must be open in the background
» Functioning smartphone with sufficiently charged battery
» Connection to the Internet (via mobile or WLAN)
► WHY CALIMA?
» Perfect protection in case of danger (e.g. medical emergency, fall or threat)
» GDPR (DSGVO) compliant, as the data is stored in Germany
» Meets DGUV requirements, as developed according to rule 112-139
» Recommended by works councils, as no monitoring is possible
» High user acceptance, as employees do not have to carry extra devices
» No investment costs, as business smartphones are used
» Flexible emergency chain with in-house emergency contacts or emergency control center
► HOW IS CALIMA IMPLEMENTED?
Employees and emergency contacts can be administered and managed independently via a web-based dashboard. The app is downloaded by employees via the official app stores and installed on their smartphones.
