Alarm for Employees and Lone Workers
Fast help for employees in industry, production and service – when seconds matter.
Thousands of people work alone every day – on production floors, in warehouses, on night shifts or at customer sites. When something goes wrong, seconds decide how bad it gets.
Linucare is the dedicated employee alarm used by industrial companies from Grundfos to smaller manufacturers: a physical safety button always within reach that summons help with a single press – including GPS location and automatic calls to designated colleagues or a monitoring centre.
What does the law require?
Section 15 of the Danish Working Environment Act and workplace-authority guidance D.2.25 on lone working oblige the employer to ensure that the employee can summon help in case of accident, illness or threat – and to document the solution.[1][2]
A company phone alone rarely meets the requirement: it is usually in a pocket, in another building, or out of reach precisely when it is needed most.
How it works in practice
The employee wears a discreet safety button on a keyring, lanyard or as a wristband. One long press triggers the alarm – and help is on the way.
- One press – colleagues alerted: Designated colleagues or a monitoring centre receive a critical notification that breaks through silent mode – even on night shift.
- GPS location shared automatically: The recipient sees the name and exact location and can be navigated straight there.
- Discreet and documentable: Silent activation in threatening situations. All alarms are logged for internal audit and the workplace authority.
Grundfos uses Linucare on the production floor
Grundfos – one of the world's largest pump manufacturers – runs production around the clock. In selected areas the company uses Linucare as part of its safety setup for employees on evening, night and weekend shifts.
"When you work alone on the production floor, it gives peace of mind to know that help is always one press away. Linucare is so simple that every employee can use it – even those who are not used to technology."
"As a safety representative it matters to me that our solution doesn't just look good on paper but works in real situations. Linucare helps us meet our duty of care to our employees."
– C. Ramesh Kannan, Safety Representative, Grundfos.

- Food and feed: Mixing halls, cold storage and silo areas with lone work.
- Field service and technicians: Technicians alone at customer sites, evenings and weekends.
- Warehouse, logistics and security: Night rounds, large halls, third-party risk.
