Table of Contents

Protecting the safety of employees is a critical concern in the hotel industry. Housekeeping staff, maintenance workers, and other employees often work alone in isolated areas, leaving them vulnerable to various safety risks. In recent years, the hospitality industry has taken significant steps to protect employees. Many hotels have adopted employee safety devices (ESDs) to meet regulatory requirements and industry best practices. One solution, ProSafe by WorldVue, stands out as a smarter and more effective choice for hoteliers looking to ensure the safety of their employees.

ProSafe: A Better Choice for Hotel Employee Safety Devices

Founded in 2020, ProSafe was born out of a necessity for more affordable and effective employee safety devices in the hospitality industry. One of ProSafe’s co-founders was a former hotel General Manager who saw firsthand that available solutions were prohibitively expensive and offered minimal safety enhancements.​

In contrast, ProSafe stands out from other ESD options in the market due to its feature set, ease of use, and reliability. Here’s why ProSafe is a superior choice for hoteliers:

Simplified operation

ProSafe designed this solution with ease of use in mind. It features a one-button activation system, which allows employees to signal for help with minimal effort. This is crucial during emergencies that require quick action, with no time to fumble with complicated devices.

Superior coverage

ProSafe offers comprehensive coverage across the entire hotel property, including remote areas. The system functions reliably even in large, multi-story hotels. This ensures staff can always send a distress signal, no matter where they are.

Advanced tracking capabilities

With real-time GPS and Bluetooth tracking achieving room/area-level accuracy, ProSafe allows hotel management and security teams to locate employees quickly. This ensures a faster response time, which can make all the difference in emergency situations.

Multilingual support

ProSafe is ideal for hotels with multilingual staff, with the ability to translate over 50 languages in real time. This solution supports multilingual alerts and has a user interface that can accommodate employees who may not be fluent in the hotel’s primary language. This feature is critical for ensuring all employees can use the device effectively regardless of language barriers.

Multiple options for use

ProSafe offers a mobile app interface as well as wearable panic buttons, allowing staff to use whichever device best suits their needs. Employees can activate alerts silently or audibly as the situation requires. Push-to-talk voice notes can capture real-time voice notes in case an employee cannot type during an emergency.

Audiovisual evidence

ProSafe also supports the collection of audiovisual evidence for incident reporting, ensuring that properties can retain more information for investigation and possible prosecution.

Robust and long-lasting

ProSafe devices are durable and offer a long battery life, ensuring they can withstand daily use without frequent charging. Batteries are easy to change when needed. This makes ProSafe’s devices a reliable option for busy hotel staff who need dependable equipment throughout their shifts.
