CheckMate Offers a Simple, Affordable Lone Worker Protection System for Property Management Teams


Challenges for Property Managers

  • Resident Managers: Live on-site, handle tenant complaints, and manage emergencies. Risks: Verbal/physical confrontations, medical emergencies, slips, and falls.
  • Maintenance Personnel: Work in isolated areas (basements, rooftops, mechanical rooms). Risks: Electrocution, falls, confined spaces, severe accidents.
  • Leasing Agents: Show properties alone and conduct site visits. Risks: Confrontation, harassment, unsafe environments.
  • Janitorial and Cleaning Staff: Operate after hours in empty buildings. Risks: Hazardous chemicals, slip and fall accidents, criminal activity.

These challenges require reliable work alone monitoring tools and remote worker safety solutions tailored to high-risk, unsupervised environments.

Is Your Organization Compliant with Safety Regulations for Lone Workers?

Most provinces define “working alone” as any work performed by a worker who is alone and unsupervised.

Employers must:

  • Identify and mitigate risks.
  • Develop and train staff on safe working alone policies.
  • Establish a system of regular communication for safety checks.

These steps are critical for ensuring your team meets lone worker compliance law requirements while reducing legal risk.

  • If you do not check-in proactively, your first automated Safety Check will occur via a Text message (or optional phone call).
  • If you miss the first Safety Check Text, your second automated Safety Check will occur via a phone call only, which can be set to occur in ‘X’ minutes after the initial Text message (Options for 2,3,5,10,15 & 20 minutes)
  • If you miss this automated call, a Missed Safety Check Alarm is generated in ProTELEC’s 24/7 ULC certified Emergency Monitoring Centre, where your predefined list of Alert Contacts will now be notified.

ProTELEC’s deterrence monitoring services, offer a proactive security solution that helps prevent incidents before they occur. An approaching trespasser to the property triggers an alarm, alerting ProTELEC’s emergency monitoring operators, where trained operators use two-way audio and commercial security cameras to assess and deter threats in real time. These security tools can also be used in conjunction with our lone worker monitoring system to provide an extra layer of protection for staff who work in or near isolated buildings, basements, or rooftops. Together, these systems create a fully integrated safety network—ensuring both property and personnel are protected. Commercial security cameras allow our operators to safely assess the scene and collect information to assist in any emergency response.
