Why KATANA
Why Lone Workers
The lone worker safety landscape is one in desperate need of new ideas. Plagued by odd hours, remote locations, and general unpredictability, it’s begging for a better approach that puts the power in the hands of the end user.
Lack of Support
Lone workers face unpredictable situations without the protection that those in an office are afforded. No security guards, alarms, or key fobs stand between and danger.
Unfamiliar Locations
Lone workers are regularly tasked with entering homes, neighborhoods, or entire towns for the first time. One wrong turn or a knock on the wrong door can lead to a scary situation.
A Positive State of Mind
Offering lone workers emergency response services is what KATANA provides during worst-case scenarios, but the other 99% of the time, we offer the comfort that help is just a call away.
75%
Between 2011-2013, there were 23,000 workplace assaults, and nearly 75% of these were in healthcare and social service settings. - OSHA
85%
The American Federation of Government Employees estimates that this number in reality is much higher, as up to 85% of assaults go unreported. -AFGE
