CheckMate is a suite of safety products and services by ProTELEC that protect employees while they work. Our lone worker monitoring systems gives both you and your employee a sense of security while they’re working alone.
All of our lone worker systems are monitored 24/7/365 by ProTELEC’s Emergency Monitoring Centre. All operators must undergo rigorous training and education to qualify to work in our facility, and we’ve been awarded with the Five Diamond Certification from the Monitoring Association of America.
At ProTELEC, we blend cutting edge technology with live human response to ensure the safety of your employees.

Businesses who use CheckMate
St John Ambulance
St. John Ambulance utilizes Protelec Alarms in both of our Brandon and Winnipeg locations, including CheckMate, security cameras, alarm systems and monitoring. Their service has been professional, and they are excellent to work with. We feel reassured with the additional layers of security that Protelec provides.
Ginkgo Bioworks
I implemented Checkmate as one element of our company's Lone Work program in 2020. I have found the registration and addition of new employees to the system by ProTELEC to be flawless and prompt, on average taking less than 24 hours. The system itself is robust and user friendly. From a management perspective, the visibility to its uptake and usage is a strong data driven feedback loop. For ease of set-up and management, coupled with its user-friendly application, I recommend Checkmate as an element for a Lone Work Program.

Camrose County
Camrose County has been using ProTELEC CheckMate to successfully and safely monitor our remote employees around the clock. The ease of use for the application couldn’t be simpler and the flexibility in changing check-in times as environmental conditions change has been a great benefit. Administratively, the dashboard provides the necessary information and adaptability. It’s been great knowing that all employees are making it home at the end of the day while minimizing the manpower that has to be allocated to this monitoring.
RM of Ritchot
The Checkmate program has been beneficial for us in keeping track of our summer staff. We find it easy to use through the mobile app. The admin portal is simple to follow and allows the administrator to easily track every employee. Randy Pokrant our sales rep is always available with any questions I may have and does all the setup of new employees that need to be added. A must have to easily keep track of staff working alone.
